RE: bug? (changing _names_ of reference types)

This is a known bug in EndNote X1. The workaround is to
click in the
cell below the Reference Type (normally the Author field)
and then arrow
up to the column heading. You will be able to edit the text
in that cell
now.

Subject: bug? (changing _names_ of reference types)


Hello,

This question concerns a change from endnote X to endnote
X1.  In
Endnote X it was possible to change the name of a reference
type (edit >
preferences... > reference types) by clicking on the
first field named
"Generic".  I used this to translate reference
types into French and to
hide unneeded reference types by adding a period before the
title. 

In Endnote X1, I can no longer edit this field, despite the
fact that
the same message appears ("To hide an unwanted
reference type, add a
period before the name  (e.g., ".Map") in the
column heading below.").
This leads me to believe this is just a bug that may be
ironed out in an
upcoming patch?

I have searched the archive and have not found this issue /
bug
mentioned.  For the time being, of course, it is possible to
work around
the problem by searching and replacing in the XML file with
a text
editor, but I wondered if I am overlooking something obvious
(like a
preference somewhere that locks write access to the contents
of the
"generic" field).
