Styles, Filters & Connections
EndNote uses a number of small configuration files. There are three types:
| File | Function | Folder name |
| Connection Files | Allow you to connect to different databases or library catalogues | Connections |
| Filter Files | Allow you to import references from different databases. Each database requires its own filter file | Filters |
| Style Files | Convert references into any format or style required | Styles |
In addition to the thousands of files provided by EndNote, the Library provides files that allow you to connect to databases and format your references to a required style.
When downloading files be sure to save them to where your EndNote program is installed. You will usually need to save to C drive/Program files/EndNote X1/ and then choose the styles, filters or connections folder as appropriate.These files must be copied into the appropriate folder. Once they are in the folder EndNote will automatically include them.
Help with downloading
Usually left clicking on the file name or download will bring up instructions for saving.
If your web browser does not ask you to save, and instead displays the file as a page of miscellaneous text, try the following:
Mozilla Firefox users:
Right click click on the download link and select "Save Link As..."
Internet Explorer users:
Right click on the link and select "Save target as..".
Macintosh users:
1. Click on the link and hold your mouse button down for a few seconds until a menu appears.
2. Select "Download Link to Disk" or "Save link as..." .
Downloading from within the UWA Library
The computers within the UWA Library do not allow files to be saved to the hard disk. If you wish to download any filters or connection files from within the Library you will need to save them to a floppy disk or to a USB device.
