The way that I did this was to create a style that only had the keywords field 
in it and then export all of the references using this style as a MS-DOS text 
file. I then wrote a little BASIC programme that read in the text file and 
deleted duplicates from the text file and grouped them alphabetically 
i.e. all the words beginning with a, then b etc (I've never got around to 
implementing a full alphabetic sort) and then I do the final sorting and 
editing in a text editor. Now I keep my keyword list next to my pc and refer 
to it when I type in new references and (in theory) keep it up to date by 
writing new keywords onto the printout.

Of course what would really be a nice touch would be if you could enter 
a list of keywords into a separate endnote dialog box and then just click 
on them to add them to your references - that would save a whole lot of 
spelling mistakes, not to mention typing!

Ah well, just my thoughts.........
