Trying to get bold and plain style in my bibliography

EndNote EndNote Styles, Filters, and Connections

Hi

I want to set my output style to display each of my citations as a bold ‘header’ for each reference in the bibliography of my Word doc. E.g:

Williams 2003

Williams AB, Lopez CD, Khan EF. This is the article title, BMJ, 2003; 354: 233-256.

I am using the Bibliography Layout option and “Start each reference with” “Citation” to do this.

I want ‘plain’ text style for the in-text citation template and bold  text style for the citation when it appears in the bibliography. I’ve selected the relevant plain/bold formatting options in EndNote but when I update in Word, both are plain. And if I set the citation style to bold, both are bold.

I’ve tried fiddling with the paragraph symbols at the start and end of the bibliography but it didn’t seem to work.

 I’d be grateful for any help with this.

Thanks for your reply.

Is there any other way I can use EndNote to get my desired format in Word? A colleague who worked on these references for the previous edition of our book created custom fields with the name of first author and the year and added these manually to each record to produce the ‘header’ part of each reference. But naturally I am keen to explore other, less time-consuming, options!

To get to my desired style I had a colleague help me to produce a macro in Word that will automatically do the last piece of the puzzle (i.e. format my reference headers into bold). It seems to work well.
