The integration of Word and EndNoteX3

Since completed Prof KJ workshop, I tried to fix my Word 2007 to integrate with EndNote X3. The trial version of EndNote X3 is already expired. For preparing the completed journal using APA style, I prefer to use EndNote rather than manually key in the references. Alhamdulillah, finally at 5.20pm today I found the problem and I can use Word with integrating the full version of EndNote. What a relieved!


I am not a Computer Science (CS) people, but I love to try. It sounds alike as computer engineering, but honestly in Malaysia computer engineering is more on the hardware even though still needs a programming. Furthermore, my beloved field in computer engineering that is RTL design, necessitate to have in depth of knowledge in hardware level, before proceed to programming. Actually what we do is a hardware programming such as FPGA, microcontroller, microprocessor and others. 


Back to EndNote...After installing EndNote, the Word should be automatically integrated with EndNote. However, there was no menu for the EndNote! How can I use EndNote for my references? Then, what I did was so called 'troubleshoot'. Hahahaha....

1. I tried to uninstall EndNote using Control Panel, but fail to integrate with Word after reinstalled.
2. I tried to delete all EndNote folder manually and uninstall using Control Panel,but still fail after reinstalled.
3. I tried to reinstall EndNote and restart my laptop, but fail again after reinstalled.
4. I tried to restart Word after reinstall, but fail.
5. I tried to copy folder Program Files/EndNote inside K Has's laptop and pasted to my program files,but still fail to copy the overall.

The successful method is shown in Figure below:

Figure 1 Click on the icon and choose 'More Commands'

Figure 2 The Customizes tab will automatically open. Click on 'Add-Ins' tab and the display above appears. 

Try to check at the 'Disabled Application Add-Ins' and you will see that the EndNote is disabled. The picture above is not the real display because the integration is already done.

Figure 3 Click on dropped down menu at Manage and choose 'Disable Items' and then click OK.

Figure 4 Finally you can see the EndNote menu in your Word. Then you can use it and exploit the whole of EndNote applications.

Online Q-Doc Checking for Llyold's Audit soon

Last night, Sheila and I checked all PK(O)'s documents, compared online with the latest documents, accomplished all 18 documents for PK(O). We started around 9 pm and ended at 12.15 am in my office. Sheila wanted to continue for checking Manual Kualiti but I refused because it was my first night for a long time which I had to stay awake. Then, we took a supper at Kedai Air Buah. As usual I ordered 'keropok lekor'. I like it very much. You can't find 'keropok lekor' somewhere else as good taste as Terengganu 'keropok lekor'. For the first time, I drank dragon fruit juice there. Its taste like a mixture of vanilla and strawberry. Its colour was purple. I arrived at my home around 1am. I felt very tired, chat on the phone with my love, then slept tight. However, I awaken at 545am, but then continued sleeping. I woke up at 630 am. Even I felt tired, but I came to office at 845am. Today, I continued checked the documents alone around 12pm, paused a little while for praying and attending a talk on a new regulations for students' registration next semester. I accomplished all the 18 PK(P)'s documents around 5pm. Alhamdulillah.... Yau'mee, a quality document officer sent me the latest Manual Kualiti, thus no need to check. The attachments were also not necessary to check because it's still in progress.

All the UiTM Terengganu staffs can access these documents via UiTM Terengganu officical website.
