I am note that I can help but I will give it a try. First of all, you
should probably be running Word 5.1 rather than 5.0A. (I now, that
doesn't help). Do you have EndNote Plus as a separate application?. If
so, use the Plug In Module to convert the special citation markers to a
standard citation marker such as a "{ }" or "[ ]". Then save a copy of
your Word File and open the file with EndNote application and format
directly.

Another idea is that you might have a Init or Cdev conflict with Word and
the Plug In Module. I am talking about miniapplications like After Dark
or JClock, etc. I assume you know what I am talking about. Restart your
Mac and hold down the "Shift" key when rebooting. This will turn off all
control panel and extensions. I don't know if you are using System 6, if
so manually drag all of the control panels and extensions that you have
added out of the System Folder and restart.

Next idea, check your machine for a virus using something like disinfectant.

Next thought, you may have a system problem. Reinstall the system. Repeat
for Word 5.0a and the EndNote Plug In module.(If you try this idea, try
to reinstall Word 5.0a and EndNote Plug in module first and see if that
works.)

I hope some of these ideas help. It is very hard for me to diagnose with
limited info.

Let me know if any of these thoughts help. If not, hopefully, someone
else reading your message will give the right answer.
