Cannot exclude article title in in-text citations

EndNote EndNote How To
1

Hi,

I am new to endnote web (at mac), and when I add citations in text I am not able to exclude the name of the article.

That is, it appears as:

  (Feng, 2011, Public pension and household saving: Evidence from urban China)   

rather than

Feng (2011)

even though i choose Insert and Display as: Author (Year).

I am not able to change this using the “edit citation” option afterwards either (actually that function do not let me exclude author or year either). 

I would appreciate any help on this. I guess I am missing something basic.

Thanks!

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Now I use harvard, I have also tried others (APA … ).

Feng is a journal article that I added directly from Web of Science. I also have the same problems with (all) other articles, some of with I have added manually to end note web. The is not more than one Feng citation in the manuscript.

Thanks for you reply. I attached a small part of the document with 3 in-text citations. Originally .docx  

Please let me know if you need more information.

Ok, thanks. This seems to work.

However, it makes no difference whether I chose “insert”, or “insert and display as: author (year)”.

Both appear as (Feng et al., 2011).

I guess it should be no problem changing this manually in the text …

I choose tools - EndNote Web - Find Citation(s) … - it opens the dialogue box “EndNote Web Find and Insert My References” - after identifying the correct reference from the list I choose insert (or insert and display as: Author (year)) in the lower left corner.

I don´t really know what you mean by record number, or integrated/lobrary only mode, and I have not (deliberately) adjusted any preferences to use som alternative field.
