Can user-specific settings be saved locally, for example can users save their custom Output Styles or Capture definitions on their local workstation?

Yes, it is recommended that users save these custom files on their workstation and not in a shared area. This protects the user s files when other users many have access to the network. Since Reference Manager version 9 can perform useful operations across multiple databases (duplicate detection, retrieval, generating bibliography), can these operations be performed across multiple databases when they reside on the network and on workstations? Yes, as long as the workstation running Reference Manager has access to those computers. Global editing functions in a Network program require the user to open the database(s) in Read-Write Exclusive mode. These functions are determined to slow performance down for other users, and therefore require exlcusive access. The Global Edit functions are 'inactive' when opening a database in Read-Write Share mode.  more
