Hi everybody,
ok, the question sounds real simple, but I wasn`t able to find a solution yet anyways. I am using EndNote X2 and Word 2007.
Basically I use the numbered literature list style, as it came with the template “Numbered”. But i want the citations in the text and in the literature list as well to appear as [ABCD05], [Smit08], etc instead of [1], [2], etc.
Example: [ABCD05] stands for
A = last name author1 (first letter)
B = last name author2 (first letter)
C = last name author3 (first letter)
D = last name author4 (first letter)
05 = year of publication
Ok i could go to the template and edit it as follows: Go to “Citations” -> “Templates” and exchange “Bibliography Number” by “Short Title” and the same in “Bibliography” -> “Layout”. But then I would have to manually edit each single literature entry by adding the IDs (in the form [ABCD05]) to the "Short Title" field. But this can
t be the best way.
So my question is: How can I make EndNote X2 automatically create those [ABCD05] ID`s, hence one ID per literature entry?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Best regards,
Monga
