Your References
Organise your personal reference collection easily
Link to the World Wide Web
Launch your Web browser from ProCite to link
to full text articles or PubMed records on the Web! Even store the file
path to OLE objects, such as chemical structures from ChemDraw,
or other graphics and files. For example, a biochemist can link a single
reference to the full text of articles or to other relevant files such
as a chemical structure or protein sequence residing on the Web, a network
or local drive. A simple click of the mouse launches the Web browser
or appropriate application to display the Web page or file.
Search any way you like
Search your database with numerous operators which are not found in
other programs. These include the relational operators: equal, not
equal, greater than, less than, greater than or equal to, less than
or equal to, begins with, ends with, exactly, contains, the logical
operators: and, or, not, and/not, and the following special
values: empty, not empty. ProCite properly recognizes parentheses
and commas in search expressions.
Use advanced grouping options
Create reference groups to identify a specific subset of a database.
Grouping lets you quickly access references not found with a single
search.
Select pre-defined sorts or customise your own
ProCite has pre-defined seven of the most common sort orders for you.
These are: Author/Title/Date, Author/Date/Title, Author-Title/Title/Date
(empty author field is replaced by title), Date/Author/Title, Title/Date,
Call Number/Author/Date, Record Number. Simply select one for automatic
sorting, or choose the Custom feature to create your own. Sort up to
six levels.
Customise your reference list display
View the fields you want to see even
preview a formatted reference in your preferred output style. Arrange
"Preview" and "Quick Search" panes for customised
views and automatic retrievals. Click on column headings in your reference
list to sort your database instantly. A second click reverses the order.
Advanced duplicate detection
ProCites sophisticated duplicate checking ensures the most effective
level of detection. Identical references may slip into your databases
with a single misplaced or misspelled character. With ProCite you can
refine the process to find duplicates even if all characters are not
identical (a versus 'alpha'). Other software may not detect such references
as duplicates.

Create
Instant Bibliographies
Save time with new Cite While You Write features
Generate your manuscript and bibliography as a single document
in one step
ProCite offers the easiest, most flexible, and most powerful
way to cite references from your word processor. You can cite your references
one at a time or scan an entire document for identifying text
depending on how you like to work. Generate a bibliography and, voila!,
your original document transforms into the final manuscript with in-text
citations and a reference list formatted according to your selected
output style. Revise as many times as needed. Now you can truly Cite
While You Write.
Never leave your word processor to identify citations
With other bibliographic software, you must toggle between the word
processor and the database to identify references and insert them into
your manuscript. With ProCite you can work entirely within your word
processor. This lets you concentrate on your writing while ProCite locates
the correct citations even across multiple databases and
inserts a place holder for you.
Word Processor Compatibility
Cite While You Write supports Microsoft Word
for Windows 7, 97, 2000, and Corel WordPerfect for Windows 7, 8, 9
Format bibliographies for hundreds of journal styles or create
your own
ProCite supports output styles for
hundreds of journals. If you dont see the name of the style
you want to use, you can take a similar style and modify it with ProCite.
Create in-text citations as author/date or numbered
ProCite creates in-text citations as required by the output style for
your manuscript. If the style calls for an author/date or numbered format,
ProCite inserts these citations in your manuscript.
Revise your manuscript as many times as needed even make
complete style changes
With ProCite you can format your manuscript complete with in-text
citations in the output style you want. If you later decide to
submit the manuscript to another publication which uses a different
output style, simply choose that style and let ProCite re-format the
in-text citations and bibliography for you. This will save hours of
time and eliminate errors.
Subject bibliographies
Prepare a summary of references fashioned with topic headings. Select
one or more fields to be your topic heading (keyword or author being
the most popular choices). Then choose one or more items from these
fields to include in a subject bibliography. You can even create a subject
index to complement your subject bibliography.
Produce and preview formatted bibliographies within ProCite
ProCite lets you preview and produce formatted bibliographies for all
your references or for a marked set, without going to your word processor
first. You choose the output style, and format the document as you would
like to see the information, including or excluding specific fields.
ProCite automatically displays a Preview of the formatted file and lets
you choose whether to create a file or send directly to a printer. Save
the formatted bibliography in various formats for later use. Choose
Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, ASCII text, or even HTML, for posting your
bibliography to the Web.
Share
references on a network
Organise references for a group of users
Two Network
licence options
You and your colleagues can share databases with the network
program. Multiple users can access the same database in read-only mode
for searching and creating bibliographies. Editing functions are allowed
to a single user who accesses a database in read-write mode.
The network program is licensed based on either the number
of workstations or on concurrent accesses to the program.
Store databases on either a network or workstation drive.
Network Licence Packs (Workstation Licence)
A workstation licence provides
each individual licensed user with access to ProCite at all times.
- The workstation licence also allows installation of
the software on a notebook computer so each licensed user is able
to work both at the office and when the computer is undocked, or
portable
- ProCite 5-User Network Licence Packs are available
for larger groups.
Concurrent Network (Concurrent Licence)
A concurrent licence allows for
a limited number of simultaneous accesses to ProCite - via a network.
-
Economical choice to support a broad pool of users
-
Users run the program from a computer or workstation
connected to the network
-
The suggested ratio of total number of users to concurrent
licences is 4:1 - one concurrent licence to support four users
-
Concurrent use is governed by the network administrator
and requires a local method of metering simultaneous access
