Type your signature: You can type anything you'd like into the signature field, and use the
text formatting tools to give your signature a custom look. Signatures commonly include your
name, place of employment and title, and your contact information.
You can change the font, color, weight, and more using the text formatting tools. A signature
should be easy to read and professional. A distracting signature will make you look less
professional to the recipient.

Introduction to Microsoft Excel
Theory:
Excel is a computer program used to create electronic spreadsheets.
Within Excel, users can organize data, create charts, and perform calculations.
Excel is a convenient program because it allows the user to create large spreadsheets,
reference information from other spreadsheets, and it allows for better storage and
modification of information.
Excel operates like other Microsoft (MS) Office programs and has many of the same
functions and shortcuts of other MS programs.

How to implement Post HOC Test on data
Theory:
• When we get a significant F test result in an ANOVA test for a main effect of a factor
with more than two levels, this tells us we can reject Ho, i.e. the samples are not all from
populations with the same mean.
• We can use post hoc tests to tell us which groups differ from the rest.
• There are a number of tests which can be used. SPSS has them in the ONEWAY and
General Linear Model procedures
• SPSS does post hoc tests on repeated measures factors, within the Options menu

Introduction to Endnote
Theory:
Endnote is a program that maintains references and creates your bibliography.
Installing Endnote:
• For new versions
of Endnote (8.0 or
greater) the
installation process
should be as simple
as running the
executable file on
CD and entering in
the correct code.
• Earlier versions
might require file Figure 11.1: How to add Endnote Toolbar in MS. Word
re-location.
After installing Endnote, any version, go to Word and check the toolbars to make sure the
Endnote tool bar is available. If so add it to your toolbars
Page | 47
Computer and Its Application in Pharmacy - Manual
1. The later versions of Endnote just have a shortcut to the C:/Program
Files/Endnote X directory. I don’t know if this works in the earlier versions.
• You will be prompted to save the new database. You can browse, just like saving any
other PC file, to save the file where you want.
• You can also title the database anything you want.
• Endnote files will have the Endnote icon to denote them

How to Import References from PubMed through Endnote?
Theory:
REFERENCE is the detailed description of the document from which you have obtained the
information.
Honest and professional citation of references provides part of the framework for sound written
research:
because you must acknowledge the sources you have used to establish your arguments
and criticisms;
the references enable other people to identify and trace the sources you have used for
your ideas;
And it helps avoid charges of plagiarism because it makes clear when you are using
someone else's ideas and words.
Page | 50
Computer and Its Application in Pharmacy - Manual
• First you want to connect to the PubMed resource. After initially connecting, it will
be short-catted.
• Scroll down to PubMed (NLM) and hit connect (NLM=National Library of Medicine)
Page | 51
Computer and Its Application in Pharmacy - Manual
• A search engine should come up.
A conformation box will appear. At this point you can cancel if you have too many
references to search through, and you will be allowed to add more search criteria
Page | 52

Your screen should look something like this. If you double click on the reference you
will get the next screen.

How to Import References from Google Scholar through
Endnote?
Theory:
Importing references from databases:
The process of importing will vary from database to database. Some have a built-in export option
while others may require you to save the references into a text file and then import it into Endnote
later. Below we have included instructions for some key databases, but please ask if you need help
importing from another source.
Google Scholar allows you to download bibliographic details into an Endnote library. In order
to do this, click the small cog icon to open the settings, make sure that you have selected 'Show
links to import citations' in the Bibliography manager setting, & also choose Endnote from the
drop-down menu. Click Save to activate the settings.
Alongside each Scholar result you will now see a link to 'Import into Endnote'. Click this link
and, when prompted, choose which Endnote library you want to use and click "Open".
The references are automatically sent to this library and added to the imported folder.
Page | 55
Computer and Its Application in Pharmacy - Manual
Searching internet sources from within Endnote
You can import references from some internet sources directly from within Endnote -
e.g. PubMed, Web of Science & some library catalogues.
First, choose an internet source from the Online Search area, in the left-hand panel.
Enter your search details & click Search
Note: your searching will need to conform to the 'rules' of the source you are
searching - e.g. for PubMed do not use a comma between the author's surname and
the initials.
The references you retrieve are added to your library, and can also be viewed in the
Online Search area in the left-hand panel.
Click more... in the Online Search area to view a full list of the internet sources
available. Note: that not all of the sources will be available to you as some may
require a subscription. You can delete sources from the Online Search area so that you
only see the sources you use regularly. Note: the Web of Science Online Search
option will not work properly if you are working outside the UCL network & you
should use the instructions above instead.
Importing from a PDF file
From version X4 onwards it is possible to create references from existing PDFs that
you may have stored on your computer. To do this:
Choose Import from the File menu
Click Choose to locate the PDF file you have stored on your computer
Set the Import Option to PDF and click Import.
Note that the data quality will vary when using this method; some PDF files do not
work as well as others and it is a good idea to check the quality of the imported record
carefully.
Cite While You Write
When the Endnote software is installed into a computer, a toolbar is automatically
added to Word. This allows you to search your Endnote library directly from your
Word document & to insert citations as you are writing. To do this, make sure that
your Endnote database is open.
Page | 56
Computer and Its Application in Pharmacy - Manual
In your Word document, begin to type a document and, when you reach a point where
you want to cite a particular article, click the Insert Citation button on the Endnote
toolbar (the first icon on the left)
A search box appears where you can search for an author or keyword to find the
reference you want to cite - NB: the search is referring to the contents of your
Endnote library, so it is important that the reference is already contained within that
library.
When you have identified the reference you want, click the Insert button to insert a
'place-holder' in the appropriate place within your Word document.
This causes two pieces of formatting to be generated
1. The in-text citation is added & formatted
2 .The citations are added to the reference list at the bottom of your document.
If you wish to add a batch of references together in the same place within your Word
document, first mark the items you want within your Endnote library and then return
to your Word document & choose Insert Selected Citations from the toolbar.
As you enter citations, a bibliography/reference list is automatically generated at the
bottom of the document. You can change the formatting by selecting a different Style
from the Endnote toolbar. The style you choose will determine the format of the in-
text citations, as well as the format of the bibliography at the end of the document.
