The general strategy to edit an existing reference is as follows:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>Save the reference(s) that you wish to edit to a file using a command like <span class="command"><strong><a class="link" href="re11.html#app-c-command-getref" title="getref">getref</a> -o foo.ris -t ris -d bar ":ID:=1717 OR :AU:=^Miller"</strong></span>. This would retrieve the reference with the ID 1717 as well as all references with a Mr. or Mrs. Miller on the author list. If you prefer, use the risx output format instead.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Use your favourite text editor to edit the references in the file <code class="filename">foo.ris</code>. Make sure you don't touch the <em class="wordasword">ID</em> field as this is crucial to match this reference in the next step with the existing copy in the database.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Use the command <span class="command"><strong><a class="link" href="re11.html#app-c-command-updateref" title="updateref">updateref</a> -d bar foo.ris</strong></span> to update the reference(s) in the database.</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr /><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="ch08s03.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="ch08.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ch08s05.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Delete references </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> Print references</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
