Can anyone tell me what error code 20051 means? I have not
found anything about it in the EndNote Plus manual.

Hello Olav,

I can certainly tell you what error code 20051 means. Heck I am just going
to attach directions on correcting it to the body of this posting. I hope
this helps.

PLUG-IN MODULE ERROR 20051

This error is normally caused by a bug in Word 5 that will damage a
citation if you cut text adjacent to a citation marker and then choose
"Undo Cut" from Word's Edit menu. Word will merge the previously cut text
in with the adjacent citation marker, making the paper difficult to
format! 
How to fix it:
1.  In order to locate the damaged marker, first convert the Plug-in
Module citations to text citations (see pp. 49-50 of the Plug-in Module
manual). The conversion will run until it reaches the trouble spot in your
file.

2.  When it stops, choose "Find" from Word's Edit menu. Select "Graphic"
from the Special menu there and search down through the document until it
locates some text and an EndNote citation bracket ( ignore any real
graphics it finds in your document).

3.  Delete the selected text and the adjoining citation. Retype the text
and reinsert the citation. If the results of the Find selected only a
bracket and not adjacent text, then the damaged text is somewhere between
the citation that was found and the previous citation in the paper. Copy
the text between the two citations and paste it into a new document.
Format that text to verify that you still get the 20051 error. If you do,
then you've isolated the problem. If necessary, cut out portions of that
text and reformat the remainder to zoom in on the damaged text. Retype the
damaged text in your main document.

4.  Choose "Format Bibliography" now from the Tools menu and see if you
get the error again; if you do, repeat steps 2-3 to find another trouble
spot in the file. When the document formats without the error message,
continue with the remaining steps.

5.  Convert the text citations back to Plug-in Module citations (see pp.
49-50 of the Plug-in Module manual).

6.  Now you may choose "Format Bibliography" for the final time.

Although Word 5.1 fixed the Undo-Cut bug found in Word 5.0, a similiar
problem still remains in version 5.1.
