A - Scope
|
|||||||||
EW:1; 2 | RW: 1; 2(a) sort the db (or a subset, i.e.: any folder or view list) before printing (sort specifications within the style will not be used); 2(b) each citation style has got its sort orders for
export, bibliographic list and in-text citations within manuscripts.
Cannot create user defined sort criteria |
Pr: 1; 2; 1 and 2 are different but can overlap | En:
1: one criterion by default that can be altered (can simply click on a column in the brief list); 2: records to be exported or printed in a subject bibliography or formatted in a manuscript will be sorted according to the chosen output style's specifications; |
RM: 1 this is the criterium used for the report output as well; 2 wp manuscript bibliography list and in-text citations may have their own sort order (7 criteria) or use the citation style's sort order
|
|||||
B - Basic sort criterion for characters:
|
|||||||||
EW: unknown; 4: Diacritics do make a difference in bibliographies: incorrect, but not in export or browsing the database list | RW: can select language sort option based on operating system's localization options; 4: no, Diacritics do not make difference: correct |
Pr: 1; 2 internal regional tables; 4: no Diacritics do not make difference: correct
Leading punctuation is always ignored. Apart from Dates and Call Number digits are still letters. 2 non-filing strings lists available see below Changing sort criterium / table, requires database rebuild; LC Call/Classification and Dewey numbers are taken into account and sorted before digits and letters; Dates are converted into an internal format and sorted consequently |
En: 1: Windows active table for output list. Leading blanks and punctuation marks are ignored for titles, other punctuation is taken into account; author sort can consider all the authors in the field or just the first surname; two non-filing leading text strings lists available (see below); 4: no Diacritics do not make difference which is correct; internal regional tables can be chosen to handle diacritics differently |
RM: 1; 2 internal regional tables; can also set "Character set sort " where letters with diacritics are sorted at the end; 4: yes Diacritics make difference
Leading punctuation and articles are never ignored. Digits are still mixed with letters apart from Dates and RN where they have numeric value |
|||||
C - Sort keys on different levels |
|||||||||
EW: it depends on the selected bibliographic style, usually hidden to the user (unless he has access to EndNote desktop) | RW: yes, up to 3 (prepared and not configurable) | Pr: yes, 2 or 3 levels, 6 levels (each A/D) for custom sort order | En: yes, 5 levels (each A/D) for db list sort; each output style has got its sort order based on 5 predefined and composite criteria + 1 custom (in which: 5 levels, each A/D) + 1 option edited after original works | RM: yes 3 levels (each one A/D) on any field | |||||
D - How to sort the database |
|||||||||

E - How to sort for printing |
|||||||||
EW: it is embedded in the selected bibliographic style | RW: sort the list before printing; sort is also one of the bibliography citation style settings, included in each style | Pr: ready made options from pull down menu; citation styles have got their specifications that can be overwritten | En: use sort specifications belonging to the output style which is chosen to export | RM: from the database reference list it uses the sort order of the selected list of records; for the manuscript bibliography list and in-text citations it uses the style's specifications that can also be altered on the fly from within the CWYW function (see Manuscript formatting) | |||||
