I had my Phd paper in several word documents. Now I copied all the documents in one file. The Bibliography at the end of the document didn’t work properly. There were two and they didn’t show all the references I quoted. I deleted the Bibliography. Then I clicked “Update Citations and Bibliography…” and was hoping Endnote would generate a new complete bibliography but it didn’t create a new one. I tried changing settings in the Style Manager like switching on and off „Include citiations in bibliography" but it didn’t work and switched between the different options under “Sections” but it didn’t help. What can I do do create a new complete bibliography? Under the Footsnotes the Endnote reference appears in the right way?
The bibliography is back in the document. And I moved it to the right place with cutting out and inserting it. But the bibliography doesn’t look smart anymore. Normally when clicking on it the whole library appears with a grey background. Now it looks like normal text. Also when I add a new reference and “Update Citations and Bibliography” the new reference is not added to the bibliography.
I changed an authors name in the Endnote file to check if there are still connected and the name changes in the footnote but not in the bibliography. The new reference also appears in the list of the Word Document in the Endnote File.
Is there a way to recreate the whole bibliography? I don’t understand what you mean by start over with the combining or cleaning up the field codes!? It is a quite big word documents with automatic contents.
thank you so much for your help and you quick replies. When I opened the document again I had two bibliographys. One smart one not smart. I deletetd the one that was not smart and then I selected the whole smart library and moved it with the cursor instead of cut and copy. Now it seems to work fine and also includes new citations. I was wondering why there were reference appearings that I didn’t quote but I had the option “Format: Show only in Bibliography” turned on for some of them. I deleted them and now its looks how it should look. Thank you!!!
