There is NO substitute for checking EndNote entries individually.  I always
import into a temporary file and do a quick scan for names like van Duijn,
El-Atraby etc.  This also picks up the odd reference where there may be a
field missing (eg anonymous report).  Missing fields give scrambled
libraries!   Jean-Michel Lacroix  has rightly pointed out that correct
comma placement is the key to importing names.   EndNote is a great
product, but we shouldn't get too lazy: next thing we won't even bother to
check or read the original articles!
