Hi,  using today's daily I tried this with my correspondent.  I see  
that TY is now included but he still had issues.  We both realize that  
RIS is poorly defined, and it might be an Endnote importing thing.

Sorry this testing is a little awkward, Unfortunately I don't have  
Endnote.

Here's the bibtex for three references:

@phdthesis{conley2008design-for-qual,

Development},

        Keywords = {CollectedOwnData NoShare},
        Title = {Investigating Success of Open Source Software Projects: A  
Social Network Perspective},
        Year = {2007}}


Here's what BibDesk generates via "copy RIS":

TY  - PHDT

Here's and example of what Endnote gave him (ie lots of missing fields):

"Kim, B., Chen, P.-y., and Mukhopadhyay, T.."

Here's what Endnote's RIS export for these same references manually  
entered looks like (at least for him), quote is from him:

Pretty sure that bibtex Title should be mapped to TI, not T3 for  
example.

N2  - Web sites are being widely deployed commercially. As the  
widespread use and dependency on Web technology increases, so does the  
need to assess factors associated with Web site success. The objective  
is to explore these factors in the context of electronic commerce  
(EC). The research framework was derived from information systems and  
marketing literature. Webmasters from Fortune 1000 companies were used  
as the target group for a survey. Four factors that are critical to  
Web site success in EC were identified: (1) information and service  
quality, (2) system use, (3) playfulness, and (4) system design  
quality. An analysis of the data provides valuable managerial  
implications for Web site success in the context of electronic  
commerce. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
