Endnote X7, APA 6th, and Word 2014 - Year showing up in all subsequent citations of same author

EndNote EndNote How To

Hi all. Been using Endnote X7 for a while (I get it through my school) but only recently noticed this problem.

If I cite an Author (Year), APA style dictates that in subsequent citations within the same paragraph, the (Year) is not needed. However, Endnote continues inserting Author (Year) every time. If I exclude the year, it reverts to (Author) instead of just Author.

I can’t seem to figure out how to get it to exclude the year in subsequent citations within the same paragraph. For reference, see p. 172 of the APA 6th edition manual:

“Within a paragraph, when the name of the author is part of the narrative, you need not include the year in subsequent nonparanthetical references to a study as long as the study cannot be confused with other studies cited in the article.”

Thanks for the help!

Does that mean that there’s no way to change it? I see a lot of options when going to “Edit citation” - certainly there’s some way to put that option in there, no?
