I am also writing a thesis using MSWord with EndNote.  There is a
potential unfortunate problem with the "next file" linking, and that is
that EndNote doesn't know how to deal with the Word links (at least
version 1.2.1 does not).  Instead one must link the documents from
within EndNote (with "open next").  Since I like to print a rough draft
of the linked documents several times before doing the final
bibliographic formatting in EndNote, this is a pain because I have to
to have to open each document in turn and print it.  I guess the
solution is to link the documents with "next file" and then unlink them
just before formatting the references with EndNote.  I don't know what
happens to page numbering in this case.

On a related note, I have always wondered if MS Word could be
programmed to include the option of printing two pages side-by-side on
one page in landscape mode.  Sortof like "enscript -2r".  The margins
and type size would shrink automatically.  Are there any mac word
processors which can do this?
