I am assuming that you need to import records corresponding to the references listed in a .doc file. If the references refer to biomedical journal articles indexed by MEDLINE, it will probably be easiest to:
1. (a) Open your .doc and (b) open an internet browser and log into your RefWorks account.
2. use the RefWorks "Search" menu to select "Online Catalog or database"
3. highlight and copy an article title from the list of references in your .doc
4. paste the title in the "Quick Search" box on the RefWorks "Online Catalog or Database" page. If the article title is rather generic (e.g. "Treating Osteoporosis"), type in one or more authors names also. Separate the title and each author's name by AND. For example:
Treating Osteoporosis AND Smith AND Stassen AND Flint
(It is important that the "AND"s be in all caps. Correct spelling is also vital.)
5. Hit the "Search" button.
6. A pop-up window or new tab will appear. This page will contain the results for the search you entered.
7. Click the box for the reference you wish to import.
8. Use the "Import" button or the "Import to Folder" drop down menu to bring the record into your account. You will be asked if you're sure you want to import the reference and you will have to okay that action.
9. Repeat steps 3-8 for each of the listed references.
