I have just started using Endnote and am facing the problem that when I try pruning the reference list, the list re-sorts on its own. Since it is a large list, I have to find my way back to the reference where I was before. Is there a way to stop the automatic sorting in Endnote ?
Which version of Endnote are you using? ENX2 had a habit of jumping to the top after deleting. This behavior was remedied in X3. Otherwise, I don’t know what you mean by “resorting”.
I am having the same problem as “How to stop re-sorting while pruning reference list” reported last year, and it’s driving me nuts.
Every time I delete a reference from the library, the entire list of references re-sorts itself into some random order. For example, if I have the list alphabetized, then delete a reference, the list suddenly becomes re-ordered with no rhyme or reason. This requires that I re-sort by clicking on the Author column heading, but then it is sorted BACKWARDS alphabetically, and another click gets me re-sorted correctly, but having lost my place in the list.
