1 - Tipology and quantity
En: the 3 basic term lists (authors, journals, keywords) are just a default, they can be deleted, others can be added up to max 31; Tools \| Define Term List; and Tools \| Link Term List any list can be linked to 1 or more field terms, but each field can be linked to only one list, so the cluster structure is under the user's control; any Journals list -with up to three abbreviations- can also be used for output purpose; abbreviations can be distinctly used by each citation style; Any list can import extra data, but then belongs to (actually is physically embedded in) only one specific library; general journal lists are provided (in the Programs\EndNote folder) and must be imported to be used. There is no limit to the number of terms in a list and each term can be up 253 chars long	EN: none
2 - Can create extra
En: yes	EN: n.a.
3 - Can modify the structure of the lists or disactivate them
En: yes both. You can modify a list only when the library is open. Can create more lists. Can decide what fields will be linked to each lists. Can customize delimiters for multivalued fields (e.g. authors, kw etc.)	EN: n.a.
4 - Lists entries can be linked by cross-references (see, see also, NT/BT, later/earlier etc.)
En: no	EN: n.a.
5 - Relationship between list's content and field's content: a) each lists reflects only one field's content (1:1) vs b) a list can work as a cluster reflecting more fields' content c) a field can be linked to more than one list
En: b) cluster structure available, definitely not bound to 1:1 field basis; see above "1 - Tipology and quantity"	EN: n.a.
6 - Lists can be directly edited or must use global change function
En: yes, they can all be directly edited, but it has no influence on the entries actually contained in the records: must use global change text to modify them within the records	EN: n.a.
7 - New entries are validated 1 - compare matching an existing "go list" 2 - new/old entries 3 - probably a duplicate 4 - autocompletion (i.e.: matching closest entry already in the list)
En: 1; 2; 4; while inputting without using the list: new entries are displayed in red; close or identical term is suggested as autocompletion (this is an option in "Preferences", along with 2 others: update list while entering or importing data, see Screenshot)	EN: n.a.
8 - Lists can be printed/exported
En: yes all (Tools \| Define Term List \| [select one] \|Export as .TXT file and then print it); lists can be also, partially or completely copied to another list by using the mouse	EN: n.a.
9 - Import external data into the lists
En: yes, merge not overwrite; the list to be imported must be: one entry per line with <CR> at the end of each line, the last included; abbeviations in journals list have to be tab separated; lists can be also, partially or completely copied to another list by using the mouse	EN: n.a.	RW: no
10 - Lists are useful during input
En: yes [reference open] \| Tools \| Open Term List \| [select a list]	EN: n.a.
11 - Lists can be used while searching and browsing
En: they can be used in Search window (not for browsing), cursor necessarily at the insertion point in a field and then: \| Tools \| Open Term Lists \| select a list \| select a term \| insert it (see Searching)	EN: n.a.
12 - Lists are useful for formatted output
En: journal lists are designed to be used in output, also to optionally replace field content by one out of up to three abbreviations	EN: n.a.
