I havn't actually used EndNote, but was very impressed with the demo version. We make extensive use of bib on our unix systems and the lack of bib fuctionality on the Mac has been the biggest reason we havn't switched to macs for most of our word processing. EndNote was obviously designed by somebody who was used to using bib and/or refer. We are on the verge of making a serious investment in EndNote (i.e. many copies) and would appreciate hearing about why that might be a mistake before we go ahead and plunk down our money. -- 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"
