Cite while you write, in text citations

    Hello,

I’m using EndNote Web as I’m off campus and I have no access to the actual EndNote. I’m trying to create a reference like this “Author (year)”, but all I can do is to do “(Author, Year)”. Any idea on how to fix this?

Thanks

You can use the following steps to exclude the author and then type the author in the text manually.

Hi,

I read somewhere this solution I just hoped there was another way as is not much different than writing the whole reference manually at that point.

But thank you for your answer :) 

It is ridiculous for EndNote to not have this functionality in a pay-for program and require a hack that largely negates the purpose of using a reference manager. Mendeley does this with ease, BibTeX does this with ease.
