CWYW 39: If I've removed the field codes, is there a way to return them?

Answer: Unfortunately, this is a one-way process, once you've removed the field codes you will need to reinsert the citations or revert to a backup of the document that still has the field codes in it.

If you used an author/year output style, there is a trick you can use to simplify this process:

  1. In the document, do the following:

    Word 2007 With Endnote X1/X2: Go to the EndNote tab. Click the box directly to the right of "Bibliography."

    Word 2007 with EndNote X and earlier: Go to the Add-Ins tab and choose "EndNote > Format Bibliography."

    Word X/2000/XP/2003/2004: Go to the "Tools" Menu and choose "EndNote > Format bibliography."


  2. Here, change the temporary citation delimiters to ( and ), which should match the citations currently in the document.


  3. Click OK, and the format process should begin. You will get an "EndNote Select Matching Reference" window, where you can insert the correct citation for the unmatched reference.


  4. Please see this FAQ for more information on how to select the correct reference to insert here.
