Editing Multiple References

Post by tf8686 »

Is there a way to edit multiple references at once or do they have to be edited individually? For example, can I edit the journal name of 10+ references at one time, or does each reference have to be amended individually?

There are quite a few editing functions available in Refs -> Global Changes. These can be applied to the selected references, the hits, or the entire database.

In addition, since there is a Term List for journal names, you can edit them globally (right-click or use the Action menu in the Term List window and choose "Replace").
