Using EndNotewith Word
Cite While You Write(CWYW)
1. Open Word2. Open EndNote3. In Word, put the cursor where you want to insert the EndNote citation.4. Using the EndNote toolbar in Word, go to EndNote and select the citation you want to insert5. Select Tools and then CWYW and then Insert Selected Citation6. The citation is now inserted into the text of Word and the Bibliography at the end of the document
The above directions for inserting citations into a Word document comprise one way of getting this task done (the options are many but this is my preferred method).
90
If you need to edit the citations inserted into Word from EndNote, the easiest way is to go to the full reference view in EndNote to make the editing changes and save that record by closing the viewing pane and saving. Then go to Word and select Update citations and bibliography from the EndNote toolbar in Word. The saved changes will be reflected in the Word Document a miracle, btw.

Bibliographies with
EndNote
92
How to create a stand-alone bibliography in Word from selected citations stored in EndNote?
1.Open Word to a new document and save as a named file. Type the title at the top of the page and put curser where you want the bibliography to start.
2.In EndNote, select (highlight) the citations you want to include in the bibliography.
3.From the EndNote toolbar, select EditCopy Formatted and then in the Word Document simply Ctrl-V for paste and the bibliography is built to save and/or print. The citation format is set in the EndNote program and cannot be changed in Word. Fonts and line-spacing can be easily changed and edited.
93
Print (on the fly) a list of citations directly from EndNote resulting in a printed Bibliography.
1.Highlight the citations you want to include
2.Select File Print
(Note: the Numbered style works well when printing a list of references from your EndNote library).
94
Can I convert an EndNote coded bibliography to Plain Text? Yes.
Click on the bibliography text in Word the citations are now grayed-in. From the EndNote menu in Word, select “Convert Citations and Bibliography” Convert to Plain Text. The bibliography will no longer be connected to EndNote and will be easier to modify in Word for a stand-alone bibliography. This is not a reversible process, so use it when you are completely finished building your bibliography.

How do I enter a government office or agency into EndNote as an author?
Here is the answer one of our student’s figured out:
1.Change the reference type to “government document”2.U.S. Department of Education,, Office of Educational Technology
Yes, two commas! Tells EndNote to treat the whole name of the government body as a surname.
Another example of government departmental author:
Department of Health,, Welfare and Social Security
