HELP Endote freaked

Dear Endnote users,

I was adding some references to my database today and now I
have BIG problems!!! I hope someone out there can help.

If it makes any difference I'm using Endnote plus on a PC.
I started off this morning with a database containing 502
references. I hope this isn't relevant but today I built a
QuickFind Index on the Key Words field -0 there was no
quick find index before.

Anyway I  added another 9 references with no problem then
I'd just done a control-n to start editing number 512 and
then I changed my mind without typing anything and did a 
control-w to close the reference. I now have a blank line
above my first reference execept for the record number
which is >500,000! I tried to delete this reference but
all I get is an Out of memory message. If I open this 
reference and try to edit it and then do a control-w I
get a message saying "can't add more than 32712 (or 
whatever that magic number is) references to a library"

I tried copying all the other references into a new library
and that worked OK except that in the new library all my
record numbers are wrong (of course) as they are copied
in in alphabetical order. I tried to do a sort on the 
refernce numbers in the database before copying to 
see if that would help but I got out of memory again.

Anythig else anyone can think of that I can try?
My Ph.D. thesis is depending on this so please help
if you can - I really don't fancy going back over
each chapter editing the new reference numbers in.


PLEASE HELP!!!!!

HAZEL
