Endnote Auto-formatting parentheses

I do not use EndNote. And most likely never will. But here's an annoyance that you may have encountered  while working on your word documents.

Sometimes, in your word document, if you write certain acronyms between parentheses, EndNote may think that this is a reference. To prevent this from happening, in EndNote, do the following:

Files->Preferences->Autoformat

and change the delimiters from parentheses to something else.
