- I don't understand this. I would do EndNotes like this:
-
- Make a book.
- Create a file called Endnotes. Add paragraph numbering for each reference.
- Add the Endnotes document to the book.
- When writing the document cross-reference the "notes" to your EndNote document.
-
- Granted it takes you some time to set up, but there's alot of
- flexability in Frame.
