Ken wonders if it is possible to change the default numbering format for endnotes from lowercase Roman numerals (i, ii, etc.) to uppercase Roman numerals (I, II, etc.). While this can be done manually in the Insert Endnote dialog box, that takes several steps and a change to the default would be much easier and faster.

EndNote Library (.enl) - is the filing cabinet where we will store all our references. You only need one of these, even if you are storing hundreds of references from several different projects (we’ll see why later with Groups). EndNote Data Folder (.data) - is where EndNote stores all your PDFs.

It is possible to change the default, but the way you do it is to change the template on which new documents are based. In most cases, this means changing the Normal template because most new documents are based, automatically, on settings stored in the Normal template. (In other words, changing the template is how you change many of Word's defaults—including endnote numbering styles.)

In order to make a change to the Normal template you need to load it directly. The location of the Normal template will vary from system to system, but you can use the Windows search feature to locate it. (Just search for Normal.dotx, Normal.dotm, or some variation of these names.) Load the template directly into Word and then follow these steps:

How To Format Endnotes In Word For Mac Os

1. I am experiencing what I believe is a similar problem to kwaisiong's. I use Word 2016 on Mac (Sierra). I only used EndNotes as an add-in in Word. Now I would like to remove EndNotes completely, which I would assume includes stopping EndNotes from loading when launching Word. I have followed all the instructions in this and several other topics.
2. Add a Footnote or Endnote in Word. Whether you use Microsoft Word on Windows or Mac, the steps are the same for adding footnotes or endnotes. Place your cursor within the document where you want the referencing number for the footnote or endnote. This is normally at the beginning of a word or phrase. Click the References tab.

How To Format Endnotes Mla

1. Display the References tab of the ribbon.
2. Click the small icon at the lower-right corner of the Footnotes group. Word displays the Footnote and Endnote dialog box.
3. Select the Endnote radio button. (See Figure 1.)

4. Using the Number Format drop-down list, select the numbering format you want to use.
5. Click OK to close the Footnote and Endnote dialog box.
6. Insert a dummy endnote and then delete it. (This is important so that Word actually has to 'use' the settings you made.)
7. Save and close the template file.

The next time you create a document based on that template, the endnote reference numbers will be formatted as Roman numerals (assuming you selected a Roman numeral format in step 3). This won't affect any existing documents, only new ones.
