At the request of a UAB researcher, we have created instructions (much like Emily is working on at UW-Madison; however, we did not include the NIHMSID at his time) The pdf is posted here:

http://www.uab.edu/lister/research/library/EndNote_PMCID.pdf 

For us, this is very much a work in progress, as we hope EndNote and PubMed will work together and a standardized solution will be provided.
Any suggestions to improve these instructions (or problems you find with
them) would be appreciated.

Dear Barb,

RE:  Subject: PubMed & PMCID numbers
 
The new Endnote Pubmed filter imports PMID, PMCID, and NIHMSID all into the Accession number field. However because of the record structure, PMID claims the accession number field and leaves out the PMCID and NIHMSID.  You must modify the import filter to either ignore the PMID, import the PMID into another field, or import PMCID and NIHMSID into different fields. 

Here at UW-Madison,  we will soon publicizie a recommendation to relabel custom fields 6 and 7 into PMCID and NIHMSID respectively for the Journal Article field type. We will offer a modified PubMed filter that imports into these fields.  We will also offer an NIH output style that formats these numbers in the proper style format for NIH progress reports and applications.

I will post the URL for our instructions as soon as we set them up.  If you would like the instructions, import filter, and output style sooner, contact me privately.

Emily
