This means if you are going to use Google Docs, as an example, you will need to unformat the citations ('Convert to Unformatted Citations' via EndNote menu in MS Word) before converting the document to Google Docs format and then either convert it back to Word format before formatting the citations or save it as a rich text format document and use the Format Paper command in EndNote to create a second document with formatted citations and bibliography.
