Find Reference Updates: This command opens the Review Available Updates dialog where you can look for the latest updates to a selected reference. EndNote searches for and retrieves available field updates for the selected reference. See Review Available Updates Dialog for more information.
New Reference: This opens a new reference for data entry. It is as though you had used the References menu to select New Reference.
