(Graham) one more thing: can you remind me which bibliographic programs one can link to externally, i.e. use a URL such as endnote://1234567 to summon specific records?

I haven’t ever done that, what I have done is taken advantage of Library Master and Biblioscape using simple text tags to compile bibliographies, so you can add in-text citations into Brainstorm (for example), export the text into Word, and then use the LM or Biblioscape to properly format the in text references and compile the bibliography.

Hi,
I’m regular user of Ultra Recall (and their forum). I use Bibtex format for my bibliography http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bibtex
For managing Bibtex I was using JabRef.
I was able to import my whole Bibtex bibliography (about 100 of articles/books/thesis ...) into UR by creating custom attributes (via CSV import). So now I’m managing my Bibliography inside UR, have various categories, citation searches, links, ... and when I need to write a paper or presentation -> export to CSV and convert to Bibtex ...

Many thanks; this is a very interesting approach.
Admittedly, after trying several workarounds to maintain use of my regular software I decided to use something more specialised. After trying Endnote, I finally opted for IdeaMason.
