The {IGNORE} Field (Import Filters and Connection Files)

There may be pieces of information in a line of data that you do not want imported into your EndNote library. To force EndNote to ignore pieces of information, use the Insert Field list to insert "{IGNORE} in the appropriate place. For example, suppose you want EndNote to ignore bracketed text that sometimes follows the title of an article:

          TI:   Research funds are dwindling. [letter]

You should add a new TI tag and template to your filter (above the existing TI: Title line) that looks like this:

Tag

Field(s)

TI:

Title. [{IGNORE}]
