2. Click Search. 

EndNote sends the search request off to the remote database 

(PubMed, in this example), and a summary of the search results is 

displayed:

The dialog displays the number of references that were found to 

match your search request, and gives you the option to retrieve 

them. 

NOTE: PubMed is updated regularly, so you may find a different 

number of references than illustrated here.

If the result set seems too big, you can always refine the search to 

get closer to exactly those references you want. Let's refine this 

search by looking for just those references that include mention of 

a  high diopter. 

3. Click Cancel, and you are returned to the Search window.

4. Click in the second search line and type  high diopter .
