Importing records into EndNote:
The filter to import the references into your EndNote library is not supplied with the installation of EndNote. Save the following file [proquest_uq.enf] (developed by University of Queensland) into your Endnote\filters folder [path usually c:\Program files\Endnote\Filters]. If you do not save the filter correctly you will not be able to access it from the Import Manager when using EndNote.
See web page on importing records into EndNote using a filter .
Known problems with this Filter:
-
For Newspaper Articles, the Author field will often contain extraneous information, which should be removed after import.
-
The references exported from the database give the starting page number only for each article.
