Dear Pete,

We are still developing a version that will be directly compatible with
MacWrite Pro. We hope to release a beta in the next month. I have put you on
the list of potential beta testers for it. In the meantime, there is a
better workaround to format MacWrite Pro documents. Here are the
instructions:

1.  With your document open, choose Save As... from the File menu. The Save
As dialog box will appear.

2.  Click on the pop-up menu under "Save As" and choose RTF.

3.  Give the document a new name (for example, My Paper.rtf), save it, and
close it. [NOTE: It will look like codes in this format, but it is only
temporary.]

4.  You are now ready to format this document in EndNote. [Please refer to
your EndNote manual for instructions on how to format a paper.]

5.  To open the formatted document with the bibliography, go to MacWrite Pro
and choose "Open" from the File menu. Open the formatted file (for example,
My Paper.rtf - APA). MacWrite Pro will convert this file from RTF.

IMPORTANT:  If you are using MacWrite Pro's Frames, RTF does not support any
of the "frame" features. Therefore, format your document and then insert
these special features. RTF does support graphics and tables.

Thanks for your enduring patience!

Sincerely,
Kimberly Mattingly
