I use endnote and Word 5 for DOS (DOS ver 3.2).  

Now I know that there are problems...., but I have learned to put up with them
or work around them.  I want to know if anyone has  a work around for this one.Because I can't use the cut/paste method to insert refs while I type, I
just keep a list of current lists of my library around which is
an alphabetical list with the record numbers.  I then just type or 
we have our secretary type in the appropriate numbers into the text.  It
is faster easier and less prone to error, if I don't have to write an 
authors name legibly or type it correctly with appropriate year etc.  

Of course, this is fine if the method of citation is numbered, but if it
needs to be (author, date) it is impossible to get the in text citations.
This is due to the (otherwise) helpful feature of being able to refer to a 
specific reference in the text and just give the year in the actual 
parenthetical citation.  [I.e.  As previously discussed by Jones et al (1992) 
the...]

Is there any way around this?  I hope so, but I have tried several and 
so far, I can't overcome this problem.
