I find that when I insert a citation, it looks normal if I keep it at the unformatted stage - brackets. When I enable instant formatting, I get a string of what must be code and the quotation recorded in the notes section from the library. At the same time, Word formatting such as page numbers are reverted to {page} and inserted figures from both word and excel are erased - except that brackets and “merge” appear.
I am working with Word 2003 and EndNote 9 on Vista. This occurred suddenly, while the documents were closed, endnote open, and the computer unused for a half hour.
Thanks very much in advance; - couldn’t find the issue already in the forum.
