Formatted reference contains information that is not in any of the reference fields

EndNote EndNote How To
1

A reference file that I imported from PubMed contained some incorrect information (the editor’s name was listed in the Journal field along with the Journal name).  I manually corrected this, but the editor’s name still shows in the formatted reference at the end of the Word document when I updated the citations. 

To fix this I have tried deleting and reinserting the citation in the Word document; I have deleted the reference entry in EndNote and manuall reentered all the information.  The editor’s name no longer shows in the Journal field, but when I check the Preview tab it is there.  When I import the newly entered reference into my Word document it is still there.

Where is EndNote getting this information and how can I make it stop?  Is it checking the web for the information and secretly adding it? 

Please tell me how to fix this.

Thanks.

Thank you, this did work to fix that issue.  In the process, I noticed that all of the journals listed under “Full Journal” are actually the abbreviated journal names and all the titles listed under “Abbreviation 1” are the full journal names.

Is there any way to make a global correction for this?
