Objet : RE: Comma in the author filed

Endnote detects three parts of names. The usual order
(though it can be
changed) is 
	Last Name, First Names, Suffixes
where each part is separated by a comma.
Hence,
	Bush, George W., Jr. 
	King, Martin Luther, Jr.
	etc.

So, Endnote formats anything before the first comma as a
last name, anything
between the first and second commas as a series of first
names, and anything
after the second comma as suffixes. Only the first names are
abbreviated. So
if you have a corporate author, you can stop abbreviation by
fooling endnote
that there is a blank first name.

Hi all,

I followed the discussion on this subject and some of you
suggested using a
double comma " ,, " when entering a corporate name
with more than one part.

I don't understand why it would make a difference. Please
bear with me and
explain, I am a very new user.
