If an article has no volume number but an issue, the reference in Word for APA6th style from Endnote will show as following:
Gouyon, J., Francois, C., Petion, A., & Pothier, P. (1989). Les infections nosocomiales virales en pédiatrie. Médecine et maladies infectieuses(10), 503-507.
This is not correct for APA 6th. The issue 10 shouldn’t be in brackets.
Anyone know of any workarounds? Or how to correct this automatically in Endnote ?
Thanks.
Personally I would then put the issue number in the vol field? if there is a vol and an issue then does the issue still get put in, in parentheses? How should the issue be distinguished from a vol in a publication with no volume?

According to the Médecine et maladies infectieuses the volume number for this article is “19”. (Look at the top section above the box listing the articles for this issue.)
Thanks for your answer. Yes we put the issue in the volume field and then it works properly but it means that we have to change it manually for a large number of citations. If there is an issue and a volume, then it works properly (the issue is not in parentheses). If there is only an issue and no volume, it shouldn’t be in brackets but in italics separated by a coma. It seems actually for the example I gave that there is a volume but it wasn’t in the database.
I guess, in my field, I have never had a serial publication with only issue numbers and no vol, so it hasn’t been (ahhem) an issue for me me…
