(NY, NY) Lines: 20 I havn't really used EndNote much myself, but I've played with it and a few people here have it and seem to be happy. Mostly we use the bib preprocessor for troff on Unix machines for this type of stuff and we're only starting to move to Macs for serious scientific word processing. So, with that out of the way, my impression of EndNote is very entheusiastic. It looks very easy to use, integrates well with Microsoft Word, and has ways to import databases from other systems (namely bib and BRS/Colleague). It also looks very flexible. If I had to guess, I would say it was designed by somebody who got fed up with bib and wrote EndNote to have all of bib's strengths and also to solve all of its shortcommings. The EndNote folks have a demo version available for $5 or $10. I would suggest getting a copy and playing with it for a while. -- Roy Smith, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016 {att,philabs,cmcl2,rutgers,hombre}!phri!roy -or- roy@alanine.phri.nyu.edu "The connector is the network"
