To import from Word, you will have to get the items into ProCite (Tab each
Field, CR each record) or Refer (% Code and CR each Field) format. You can
do that with global Find and Replace commands, but be prepared for tedium.

A faster procedure is to use ImporTool, a HyperCard stack that
auto-transfers data into fields as you select and double-click them. It
will import Text files and export them in a Tab/CR format, which EN+
accepts as a ProCite import.

ImporTool is useful and inexpensive, but you can only run it on a Mac.
