Does anyone know of an easy way to produce abbreviated author citations 
while retaining the full author name in the reference.  I'm referring 
primarily to corporate and agency authors that abbreviate to acronyms 

I frequently cite agencies such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration and would like the in text citation to read (NOAA 1994) 
and the reference to read:

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). 1994.

The obvious solution is to create a new field called "abbreviated author" 
or something to that effect and use it for the citation style.  But that
will force me to revise several thousand references.  I'd like to create
an "abbreviated author" field that endnote only uses if it contains an
entry, and have endnote revert to the regular author field if the
"abbreviated author"  entry is empty. 

Anyone have any ideas if this is possible?
