Does anybody have anything good to say about Endnote? 1:40 PM Anonymous said. By my count Thompson / Endnote owe me for about 20 hours of work time all in. I tried all of the above suggestions but nothing worked. Then I deleted both the and the, and boem, it worked again!. I deleted the Microsoft folder from the Library/Preferences. So it had to do with that one account where the error occured. I solved it by looking at another account on the same machine, which worked fine. very very frustrating for awhile, I feel your pain, having competed my PhD in 2002 with an older version of EN that played similar tricks when the pressure was on. Thanks for the input, the 'deleting all comments' worked. If this isn't clear, or you'd like an example email me at Pete 3:30 AM Unknown said. You need to label the picture in another program, and then insert a labeled picture as a single item. What you need to do is remove any text box objects that you have used to label on a picture or other diagram. This is a bigger problem for bigger documents. COM exception occurs when Word tries to 'repaginate' and runs out of memory from trying to do it too often because certain items in your document move around depending on other text. Perhaps it is far too late to help you with this problem, but I had it recently and figured out what was going on. Maybe this is what the "COM" error refs to.? 4:17 PM Pete M said. I had a similar error that was fixed by deleting all comments. The "a COM exception has occurred" error appear to happen because of a clash wtih Word's comments function. Und jetzt bin ich mit meiner Kombination sehr zufrieden. An LaTeX habe ich mich irgendwie nie rangetraut. Das ist auch kein Traum, aber sehr stabil auch bei langen Texten. Ich benutze die Kombination Mellel / Bookends. TextMate ist übrigens ein guter Texteditor. Ich hab' ziemlich viel in den bibtex-configs 'rumgewühlt.

Sag' Bescheid, wenn du Hilfe/Tips/Infos brauchst. I will NEVER EVER use Word/EndNote again for scientific purposes. What an annoying waste of time and money.

#COST OF ENDNOTE FOR MAC SOFTWARE#

Both pieces of software appear to be badly ported from Windows to the Mac (see here for Word), and their shortcomings in terms of performance multiply into one big piece of junk. My advice to everyone: Do not write your PhD on a Mac with Word/Endnote. Not only does it produce a beautiful thesis, but its also a much better workflow.

I should have done that right from the beginning. I now switched to LaTeX (gwTeX / TeXShop / BibDesk) and typeset the entire document again. This is a complete nightmare and a catastrophe beyond belief. Thus, I have a frozen version of my PhD that I cannot edit. Sometimes that happens without me doing anything. It took me an ENTIRE DAY to auto-format my bibliography and as a result I have a complete document BUT: Whenever I open the document and try to edit a reference in the text (or add a new one), Word freezes and the above errors appear. Citations would remain unformatted untiil I manually clicked into them, this would sometimes help. After the fifth chapter, both above error messages started to show up again.

Guess what, already after the 3rd chapter, Word started to slow down extremely, and to re-run page breaks over and over again. After every chapter (about 20 pages), I formatted the bibliography. I avoided two citations which the EndNote support suspected for having caused the error. So I did the following thing: I opened a clean and fresh Word document and pasted my thesis chapter-by-chapter into the new document. Which is not much use because some citations were arbitrary (I forgot to place the #Record) and of course they didn't get it right.

Then they formatted my document on a Windows machine for me without any substantial advice on how to avoid the problem in the future. They were friendly and asked me to send in the document and my library, which I did.

Now dare you, this is a legal and fully registered Version of EndNote (I spent 100 EUR for an upgrade to Mac in January!), so I contacted EndNote support. When I finished my document, I clicked on "format bibliography" in my EndNote PlugIn, and Word started working, until the above COM exception occurred.

When I wrote the thesis, I did not use CiteWhileYouWrite, but inserted EndNote in-text citations like this: if I wanted to omit the author's name).

Proceed?)īoth windows pop up regularly when I open my PhD thesis (about 210 pages) in Microsoft Word 2004 for Mac on my MacBook (1,83 Ghz, Mac OS X 10.4.10, 1 GB RAM) and try to edit a citation.
