Library window display

Hi,

I am brand new to this list and have just migrated my two
Reference Manager 
databases to EndNote 9 libraries for Macintosh. In Reference
Manager (for 
Windows) I was able to keep the two databases individually
configured, with 
different field names etc. by using separate Windows user
profiles, but in 
EndNote I seem to be stuck with the same structure for both
databases 
(libraries). I have searched the EndNote knowledge base and
the archives of 
this list for suggestions but the only thing I found was
this question from 
2001:

"Can you modify Display Fields for individual
Libraries?
Hi
I wonder if anyone can help with this ...
The "display fields" dialog
(Edit>Preferences>display fields) appears to 
have an application-wide effect, making it impossible to
arrange for 
individual Libraries to have their own sets of (five)
headings for display 
in the library window.
Have I missed something? If this is true, it seems to
seriously limit the 
flexibility of EndNote for display of data other than
standard reference 
types.
Thanks for any assistance.

There were no comments or answers to this question but
perhaps someone has 
come up with a solution since 2001.

If it is not possible to maintain individual library
structures, would 
running different profiles in OS X solve the problem? If
this does not 
work, I think the last solution would be to keep one of the
libraries under 
Windows/Virtual PC.

Many thanks for any help you may provide.
