All entries for June 2008

Post–nominals (e.g. Jnr)

If you have an author with a post nominal e.g. Jnr., you will need to add an extra comma after the intial in the author field to make sure your reference formats correctly in your final bibliography

So, your entry in the Author field of your EndNote Web account should read:

Bloggs, F., Jnr

or

Bloggs, Fred, Jnr

Word's Track Changes feature and EndNote Web

Be careful if you use Word’s Track Changes feature with an EndNote web formatted document, as it can cause problems. If you do need to use Track Changes, make sure you turn it off again before you make any changes to your citations/references.
