I’m not getting the EndNote toolbar in Word

Solution:

The toolbar in Word that provides the connection to EndNote is based on so-called macros that must be in place and enabled.

The procedure depends on the Word version you are using.

Automatic configuration procedure for Word on Windows:

  • Quit both EndNote and Word
  • Start Control Panel
  • Select «Programs» / «Applications»
  • Find your EndNote program, and select «Repair»
  • Then the program will check all additions and extras and notify you of the progress
  • Finally, click «Finish» and the procedure is complete
