I have heard that a Windows version either is or soon will be available. If you do decide to use EndNote (or anyone else out there is currently running it) on a Mac, here is a tip: My former lab mate from the UofAZ, Tom Moore, has written a freeware program called GR Basic (short for GeoRef Basic) that will take downloaded GeoRef CD-ROM files (inlcuding keywords, geographic coordinates, etc) from a MS-DOS disk and translate them to EndNote-readable libraries for your Mac. This is really handy since most libraries have the GeoRef CD-ROM database running on IBM-PC compatible computers. However, full-access to the GeoRef database will cause your EndNote Libraries to expand enourmously! Mine went from ~3000 to over 9000 references in about a month (maybe 6-7 searches). This program is available at: http://kilburn.keene.edu or you can email Tom at: mooret@aruba.ccit.arizona.edu -- Tim Demko demkot@lamar.ColoState.EDU Morrison Research Initiative <URL: http://yuma.colostate.edu/~cwis70/morrison.html> Department of Earth Resources Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523 Office Phone: 970 491 6966 FAX: 970 491 6307
