[Papyrus-L] PAPYRUS, windows XP, Clare Imholtz, and Endnote.

[Stephen Barlow]

I was please to here that papyrus works well under win2k, I have 
recently upgraded to win2k, but I can not write my own formats any 
longer, "|" pipe symbol does not work under win2k. Which makes importing 
some my references a problem. I have written to dave several times on 
this problem and still have not had a response. Do other people have the 
same problem? If so is there a work around?
