I actually have read all of the posts, somehow I just don't feel I am inane enough to post some days.

The car clean only took about 1.5 hours. Then I went to the movies




Roomie leaves tomorrow morning so I will be by myself for the next 5 days. Then I will be in CO-MI-CO before starting my next assignment.

I guess when you have a designated chauffeur it is good to clean her car once in a while.

Just wire nut the wires together and bypass the switch.

Why does Jman hate EndNote?







Maybe there should be a poll.

See what I mean, Jman has some sort of primal hate for EndNote.

Tech posts only boost your post count.

TUT only counts toward your inanity post counts.

Endnote version? are your pull-down menus in Endnote or in Word? Ross described procedure for when your pull downs are in Word, I described for when in Endnote. I am pretty sure that the PC and Mac evrsion are evry similar to each other; I never had problems with my PC-based secretaries when they used comparable versions

I currently have version 8.0 but I am pretty sure that something like "field code remove" or "remove citation markers" existed since at least version 5.0

For science writing you tend to use the same references over and over again and EndNote keeps your database of references for you in an easy to access form so you you can add an endnote with two or three clicks and keep writing. It also interfaces with the electronic journal databases so you can find a reference in an online search and with a couple clicks add it to your reference database.

Of course it keeps track of all the formatting too and if you need to submit your paper in a slightly different format you can redo it with a few clicks.

EndNote easily saved me 12 hours of bullshit mickey mouse typing and organizing of references when I wrote my PhD thesis and the papers for publication that went with it.

In addition you can format the biblio to the standards of each journal/book/whatever at the click of a button. When you download a reference it also includes the abstract when available making it a very useful tool to jog your memory about a particular paper. You can also link the references to the PDF on your harddrive and therefore use it as your own personal journal article archieving/searchable database.

Sadly Claudi the Jman doesn't have EndNote the program and is using the featureless endnoting tool embedded in Word.

I am having a bachelor lunch of two cups of yogurt and a cup of coffee. I might have some of the leftover pumpkin pie/cobbler thing from yesterday. I wonder if we have any ice cream in the office...

No use waiting for any sort of response from Dr. Cloudy, she's off in Campari land. . .

Endnote CAN be made part of Word my mving two files into a folder in the Word application..... process comes with the Endnote instructions, but for the Mac, I can walk you through it......

Having the Endnote pull-downs in Word is superconvenient....

if you are working from the Endnote side: this is Endnote Help on the subject (there are three returns on the subject, I am copying the most general):

Removing Field Codes

You may need to remove Cite While You Write field codes in order to share your document with a publisher or colleague.

Most publishers require that field codes be removed.

If your colleague is using the same version of Word that you are, you can share your formatted document as is; the document includes a Traveling Library, which includes all required information for the formatted citations and bibliography.

If your colleague is using a different word processor or an incompatible version of Word, you could remove field codes to share your final document. However, removing field codes saves the formatted citations and bibliography as text, and does not allow reformatting.

Removing field codes means deleting Word’s Cite While You Write field codes and saving the formatted citations and bibliography as text. This removes only Cite While You Write field codes, and not all other Word field codes.

When field codes are removed, in-text figure citations are no longer linked to an EndNote reference or to the figure list. In- text figure citations become plain text. Pictures in the figure list become GIF files as though they were copied and pasted into the document.

Because EndNote and Cite While You Write cannot reformat or unformat your paper once field codes are removed, the Remove Field Codes command makes a copy of your document without codes.

Note: If you are working with master and subdocuments in Word, the Remove Field Codes command warns that it will strip codes from the original documents. You should first manually save copies of the master and subdocuments, and then remove codes from the copies.

To remove field codes and save the formatted citations and bibliography as text:

Open your formatted Word document.

If you are working with Master and Subdocuments, work with copies of your documents.

From the Tools menu, go to the EndNote 8 submenu and select Remove Field Codes. A copy of the document, without field codes, appears in a new document window.

From the File menu, Save the document.

Single document: In Word’s Save As dialog, type a new name for this copy of your document and click OK.

Master and Subdocuments: You may be advised to save a copy of the master and each subdocument.

Word saves your document without embedded formatting codes, so you can submit your paper to a publisher or share your final paper with a colleague using a different word processor (including a different version of Word).

Note: The copy does not contain Cite While You Write field codes, so you cannot reformat with Cite While You Write. To reformat, start with the original document, which retains field codes.

If you find that the Remove Field Codes command produces undesired layout or other formatting changes to your document, you can remove all Microsoft Word field codes, which may yield better results.

To remove all Microsoft Word field codes:

First save a backup copy of your document, because this will irretrievably remove the links between your document and your Reference Manager database(s) as well as all other Word field codes.

Select all text in the document by choosing Select All from Word’s Edit menu or pressing command+A.

Press command+6 to remove all Microsoft Word field codes from the document (not just Cite While You Write codes!) and leave the text, citations, and bibliography as they appear.

Maybe we should start a petition to force Jman into getting EndNote. We all know he will then be able to lead a more productive and happy life using EndNote. In addition it will help heal the wounds the world suffers from his anti-EndNote world view.
