"Fix" for Problem with Endnote Web Plug-In for Word

We've learned that some people are experiencing problems with the Endnote Web plug-in for Word which means that in-text references are not being formatted in the correct style (usually APA 6th ) and Reference lists are not being compiled correctly either, so their Word document looks something like this:



The solution to this problem is to choose Preferences from the Endnote Web toolbar and, under the General tab, make sure that the "Enable Instant Formatting on new Word documents" box is ticked (see below).

Once you've ticked the box you'll need to re-start Word for the change to take effect.



Any questions, please contact us.
