Update: 

Import Routines 7.0 (2011-06-18, release 7.000.016, 2.7 MB)

Note: 

The file downloaded when you click on the link above is actually a program: GetARef70_UpdateImport.exe. Run this program to update GetARef (e.g., double-click on the file name in Windows Explorer).

You can safely update from any relase of GetARef 7.0 to the current release of GetARef.

GetARef's Main Program is updated via another web page

Update information: 

To update older versions: 

The policy of DatAid AB is to fix reported or discovered problems and make any improvements available as quickly as possible whether the modification is relevant to many users or not.
Therefore, rather than to 'accumulate' a number of changes and intermittently publish
a major 'patch' or 'update', the updated program version is made available immediately.
Accordingly, users can safely assume that reported problems will be addressed and fixed quickly.

Adjustment: For some exceptional PubMed records, there is no title and the PubMed record is wrong. GetARef has been adjusted to provide a reasonable solution. 

Bug fix: For some types of characters in PubMed downloads, GetARef freezed. To improve PubMed downloads, don't hesitate to report any characters that appear wrong or illegible to DatAid. 

Adjustment: For some abstracts downloaded from PubMed, unusual non-standard characters (e.g., "£") either caused GetAref to incorrectly truncate the abstract or display strange symbols.

Adjustment: PubMed now sometimes delivers abstracts in a new structured format. GetARef is now able to import also these correctly.

Adjustments: GetARef is now able to automatically recognize files of the RIS format downloaded from Scopus.

Note: Importing references from online journals that provide downloads in the form of *.ris file can be simplified by letting GetARef.exe be the default program to open such files. This can be achieved by locating such a file in Windows Explorer, click on the file using the right mouse button and select 'Open with...', and finally, select GetARef.exe as the default program to open files with the extension 'ris'.

Adjustments: Improved recognition of ISI Export Format.
GetARef is now able to recognize even more variants of this file format (e.g., as supplied by Web of Science).

Bug fix: When importing references directly from PubMed, some references (typically with very long author lists) were never imported without GetARef providing any explanation
GetARef's previous limit for a 'reasonable' record length (1000 lines of text) was too constrained.

Adjustments: Improved handling of BibTex files.
Note: Importing references from BibTex files with the extension 'bib', e.g., 'cits.bib' file can be simplified by letting GetARef.exe be the default program to open such files. This can be achieved by locating such a file in Windows Explorer, click on the file using the right mouse button and select 'Open with...', and finally, select GetARef.exe as the default program to open files with the extension 'bib'.

Adjustments: Improved recognition of files in the RIS format.
Note: Importing references from online journals that provide downloads in the form of *.ris file can be simplified by letting GetARef.exe be the default program to open such files. This can be achieved by locating such a file in Windows Explorer, click on the file using the right mouse button and select 'Open with...', and finally, select GetARef.exe as the default program to open files with the extension 'ris'.

Adjustments: Some journals and publishers offering downloads of citations uses idiosyncratic versions of the RIS and the Endnote format. GetARef's import (and paste) routines have been adjusted to increase the number of variants supported. 

Note: Also the main program needs to be updated.

Adjustment: TOXLINE from Medlar has changed its format and GetARef's import routine has been adjusted accordingly. 

Adjustment: The import routine for PsycINFO (Silverplatter and WebSPIRS) has been modified to match changes in the dump file format.

Bug fix: When importing references from Ichu (Japanese), some characters were unreadable.

Improvement: Improved handling of Endnote Import Format (REFERBIB) with respect to recognition and handling exceptions from the specified REFERBIB format.

Improvement: Improved recognition and handling of the ISI Export format (for instance, as provided by Web of Science).
