I have installed EndNote+ on my SE + Railgun accelerator + Virtual (virtual memory) + System 6.0.5 + various INITs. It seems to be OK with established libraries, but it doesn't Import Refer format properly. When I choose Import, it does *not* show Pro-Cite as an option, but only Refer/BiblX. When I choose the file, the disk light flickers for a while (as if reading the file), but no records are added to the database. (I get the same result if I disable Virtual.) However, on a IIci with similar setup except for System 7, the Import shows a choice between Pro-Cite and Refer/BiblX, and the import of Refer format file works fine. Any suggestions on what's wrong? -- Charles Lakos.

The full story is that on an SE with System 6.0.5 + Finder 6.1.5 + SuperBoomerang 3.0.2, (with or without the accelerator), the import format list does *not* include Pro-Cite. Having omitted that, the Refer format becomes the first on the list and it gets confused with the Pro-Cite (which is normally first). The conflict with SuperBoomerang does not occur on a IIci with System 7. -- Charles Lakos.
