I have a rather large reference list of all the papers I have read stored in a troff file on a Sun. My reference list includes the actual reference as well as keywords, a short summary of the paper, as well as "references"/pointers to previous or related works. I would like to transfer this entire list into HyperCard on a Mac SE, i.e.: transfer each entry to a separate card and fill all the fields apropriatly (ref, keywords, summary, etc.) and possibly provide links to the related works. Fonts etc are not important at this point. Then later, I would like to select all the references (but not the additional info) from a given list, format it, and append (or include) it to an MSWord file. The main problem right now is how to get the info xfered into Hcard (I know how to get the file into the Mac, formatted or not). My ever growing list is about 150 entries large, and right now I don't have the time to spend 2 weeks futsing around with this. I am a total novice with HCard, and therefore I was wondering if any of you have ever attempted anything like this, and how you did it, where I should look for more info, etc. Jan Please send your responces directly to me. arpa: jan%lipari@oberon.usc.edu vdb@cse.usc.edu (or vdb%cse@csnet-relay.arpa) uucp: ..!{{decvax,ucbvax}!sdcsvax,hplabs,allegra,trwrb}!sdcrdcf!uscvax!vdb arpa: jan%lipari@oberon.usc.edu vdb@cse.usc.edu (or vdb%cse@csnet-relay.arpa) uucp: ..!{{decvax,ucbvax}!sdcsvax,hplabs,allegra,trwrb}!sdcrdcf!uscvax!vdb
