I have Endnote X.0.2 and I am wanting to put citations into footnotes in a
400 page document in Word 2007. When I try to do this the computer locks up
endlessly recalculating page numbers. Eventually I have to close everything
down and start again. Maybe the answer is to uninstall all and go back to
Word 2003. I would appreciate any suggestions you have. Unfortunately the
'help' function of Word is useless, searches produce hundreds of items which
have little or no relevance. Many thanks.

Did you update to Office 2007 over Office 2003?

The document may be corrupted (or a template if you updated in place) or the EndNote add-in may be conflicting with another add-in.
If you're using Windows Vista then there are some compatibility issues with the Endnote X.0 version per the Word 2007 FYI page at
http://endnote.com/enwork2k7.asp .

Do you get the same problems if you restart Word and try using the features in a different/new document?


Some suggestions on helping to work with help in Word 2007 were included in your previous message on the 'hundreds of items' :) in
the MS Office discussion group, but I wouldn't expect the particular scenario to be covered <g>.

Hi Bob
I upgraded from Office 2000, using Windows XP, and I had previously put in
citations manually but now trying to use Endnote. I do seem to be able to put
citations into smaller documents or into sections of the Master document
though the latter still slow. I think the problem must be the overall length
of the Master document and, as you suggest, corruption. Though I am unsure
how I would recognise a corrupted document apart from this difficulty with
citations. From what I have picked up in previous pages the use of a Master
document seems to be asking for trouble. I don't want to start all over so I
guess one solution might be to change to a long document by expanding the
whole Master document and then copy and paste it into a new document. Is the
'corruption' problem likely to carry over, or is there some way to avoid this?
Cheers, thanks for response, thought it was just me.......

Just to add that I had a response from Thomson Reuters who supply the EndNote
software. They sent a 4 page How-to Guide entitled 'Inserting Footnotes using
Word and EndNote' for Word 2007. They also suggested that the constant
repagination could be stopped by clicking on the Format Bibilography command,
then disabling the Instant Formatting tab.
Cheers, from not quite so irritated Word user.
