OK. Thanks.

Well, forget the above. The problem is in the number of bibliography entries. Deleting and re-introducing the bibliography entry to which the last endnote pointed did not fix the problem. Pointing the last endnote to an already existing bibliogr…

The problem seems to be in the very last endnote. When I delete the last endnote (No. 339) everything works fine. Hypothesis: After I generated the bibliography originally, I moved it from its position in the body of the text (before the MS Wo…

The overflow problem is not due to file size. I have an earlier draft of the same document with only half a dozen fewer citations and this problem does not occur. Same setup on same machine. Baffling.

The error code on my preceding post is 638906848 Using MS Word from Office XP with MS Vista Ultimate.

Uh-oh ... another problem, and this one is scary. When I ask Z to generate a fresh bibliography, I get a Visual Basic error No. 6, "Overflow." And no bibliography. I've rebooted everything twice, even tried moving the notes to a fresh (and mu…

Hmm ... pasting the bibliography after the endnotes (in actuality, as the last of the endnotes, but not numbered) means that the Table of Contents routine in Word does not pick up or show the bibliography. Similarly, other back-of-the-book end mat…

A tip for first time users: Check for and eliminate duplicate entries in the db BEFORE generating footnotes. If you eliminate the duplicates afterward, there is a risk of orphaning the footnotes that refer to the duplicate entry, and this is a…

Hmm ...having posted this three minutes ago, and added another footnote, now the Refresh button appears to work -- no VB error message ...

Oops, new headache. When clicking on the Z toolbar in Word, the button for Refresh, things hum a little bit and then up pops a Visual Basic error message: "Run Time Error 91: Object variable or With block variable not set." I've r…

I did finish before dinner! But now I have another question. I'm using end notes in MS Word, and those have to go into a new MS Word section; so basically the whole body of the book is in Sec. 1 and the endnotes are in Sec 2. Now I want to ge…

OK, I muddled through, using ctrl-z and alt-return to find one entry that was allegedly deleted from the zotero db, but was really there. I deleted the footnote reference to it and then regenerated it, and somehow that seemed to fix the problem. N…

Much faster now -- 20 seconds for a footnote, including a few seconds for me to find the reference on the long list. Considering the number of references -- now up to 331 -- this is very acceptable performance. But there's still three allege…

OK, I figured out the db repair tool, and I've got a cleaned up database. Thanks for the help. Things are running much better.

Upgrading to FF3 and resetting the config is a BIG improvement in working time. The long delays are gone and I can do a footnote in seconds instead of minutes. I should have come here for help earlier! On the other hand I have some lovely music t…

Thank you for the helpful comments. OK, I upgraded to FF3. I modified the config settings. I uploaded the .sqlite file to the DB repair tool. What happens next? Does the DB repair tool return the cleaned up file to me, somehow? If so, how?

Ditto on not being able to import from ScienceDirect with guest access. Tried it several times this evening, Feb. 21 '08, even after updating translators, and every time, Zotero hangs (endless little ringworm in Vista). Thank you for this otherwis…
