CWYW 7: When I try to use any of the EndNote Web tools in Word, nothing happens. There is no error message or anything, but the tools do nothing. How can I fix this?

Answer: All specific third-party addin issues appear to have been resolved with the latest version of the EndNote Web tools. to load the latest verison, use the steps here.

In general, the conflicting addin files can be found in Word's startup folder, located at:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Startup

With Word and Outlook closed (as well as any other programs which may use Word components, such as PowerPoint), browse to this folder and remove the addin file that is causing the conflict. Then start Word again and try using the EndNote Web tools to see if the problem has been resolved.

If the above steps do not resolve your problem, please contact us and provide us with a list of the items in the "Checked items are currently loaded" box (see instructions below). Also, please note which items are checked, and which items are unchecked.

Word 2000/XP/2003: go to “Tools / Templates and Add-ins.” This will open the window that contains the “Checked items are currently loaded" box.
