Endnote X4 - Importing existing Word 2010 bibliography

EndNote EndNote How To
1

Hi all,

I recently received a copy of Endnote X4 from my university, and I was wondering how to import an extensive already-existing source list from Microsoft Word 2010 into Endnote. The source list is the usual Word XML C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Bibliography\Sources.xml. I can’t find any option in the import filters, nor anything in the FAQ except for this somewhat depressing article: http://www.endnote.com/support/faqs/Import/faq8.asp.

Can it be done, and if so, how?

Thanks,

Jim.

Here’s a prior thread - which is hopefully less depressing - on importing Word citations/references into EndNote: http://community.thomsonreuters.com/t5/EndNote-How-To/Import-citations-to-EndNote-from-Word-2007/m-p/13205#M4966

The discussion focuses on Word 2007 but Word 2010 also has the “Import Word Citations or Master List” options from the Cite While You Write toolbar.

Thanks for the solution, it worked well.

Jim.
