Searching 2: For some reason, in the Title field for some of my references there is a number on a second line within this field. In the bibliography, this displays a new line with a random number just after the title in a given reference. How can I correct this?

Answer: This happens on references that are copied to your database, either from an online search result or by copying between two databases, if the Field Numbers are set to be viewed.

If you are viewing field numbers and you copy between databases, a dialog box asks you which field you want to copy any existing RefID numbers that have to be renumbered in the references that are being copied into the database. By default, this number goes nowhere, but if your Field Numbers are visible, this number is copied to the end of the Title field.

To turn off Field Number viewing, go to the View dropdown menu and uncheck the "Field Numbers" option. Unfortunately, any references that already have these numbers in the Title field will have to be edited manually.
