Once you’ve exported your Word references into Endnote you should be able to convert the original Word in-text citations into Endnote-formatted in-text citations.
As a safeguard use a backup copy of your document before proceeding. Then with your Endnote library open, go to the MS Word toolbar and locate the Endnote tab in the ribbon. Find the option “Convert Citations and Bibliography” and click the pulldown menu. Then click to select “Convert Word Citations to Endnote”. (Refer to attached image.)
