That is exactly what our EndLink import module is for.  However, I will warn
everyone that there is a problem with Knowledge Index.  The instructions in
the manual (to use a "tag" in the middle of the display command) are no
longer correct.  Dialog has changed the indent in these displays.  We now
recommend that you type the word "tag" after the display command, like this:

t 1/m/1-5 tag

You must have EndLink 1.1.6 (Mac) or 1.1.7 (PC) to import the resulting
display.

If you have an earlier version of EndLink, please contact us directly at
nilesinc@well.sf.ca.us (or your local distributor) for your free upgrade.
In the UK, please contact Cherwell Scientific at csp@vax.ox.ac.uk.

Avi,
	Thanks for that. I have had some problems importing with EndLink 1.1.6
on the Mac,even using 'tag' after the display command.  It now seems OK.
HOWEVER, I still need to remove white space otherwise the <CR> and padding
spaces prevent EN from recognising duplicate references which use different
padding.  Another addition to the wishlist of future changes, I guess.
