RefWorks

Hi Robert,

The problem is on EBSCO's side. They estimate a fix by Friday. In the meantime, you will need to export to a text file and import the references in. See: http://www.refworks.com/RWSingle/help/Exporting_from_Data_Services_and_Importing_into_RefWorks.htm

Look for EBSCO.... Read More

Hi Haidy,

1. RefWorks will add the alpha characters to ambiguous citations automatically when it formats the documents.

2. Yes. Write rw-rwsupport@refworks-cos.com for details on using master and sub documents from our program.... Read More

While RefWorks does not currently support sub-folders, one suggestion we give users that accomplishes the same goal is to consider hierarchical folder naming. Below is an example of how a hierarchical folder structure can be created in RefWorks:

Cars <-----Master, or top level, folder
Cars - Engines <----- Secondary folder
Cars - Engines – Hybrid <----- Sub-folder... Read More
Cars - Engines - Traditional <----- Sub-folder
Cars - Transmissions <----- Secondary folder
Cars - Transmissions - Automatic <----- Sub-folder
Cars - Transmissions - Manual <----- Sub-folder
Cars - Wheels and Tires <----- Secondary folder

The advantage to this is that the folders will sort alphabetically in all drop-downs and menus and will retain the same structure as if the folders were literally embedded within each other (like when viewing Windows Explorer). Master and secondary folders can remain empty or unused, but act as placeholders. References can then be filed in the sub-folders.

ah okay - thanks for this!! good advise :)

Actually it works pretty well. I just cut-paste the citation into the text, and save in .doc format.

yeah but that's not the same function as being able to do it within the word processor.

RefWorks can format ODT files as well as DOC files.

Good to hear you got it fixed Kathryn! If you have any other questions or problems with your documents let us know and we'd be happy to help!

Actually, I figured out how to identify the vacancy that was Ref 26 but since I must have deleted it, I won't know what it was. The only thing I can think to do is to check every reference and make sure they all align with an ID number. That seems cumbersome. Any better ideas?

Do you remember the author or the date of Ref 26? Compare that to the references in your account. Since Ref 26 is missing it might be because you deleted it as a duplicate.
