Scopus to ISI-format (Scop2ISI.exe

 

This program enables one to read a file which is exported from the Scopus database in the csv-format. The input file should be named scopus.csv. The program and the input file should be in the same folder (directory).

 

The program produces a file isi.txt which contains the information in the tagged-format of the ISI output. This file can be used as input to most of my programs. (The file has to be renamed to data.txt for this purpose.)

 

One major difference between the Scopus and ISI output is the use of the abbreviated journal names in the ISI output. These are used in the cited references by the ISI, but Scopus uses the full journal names. The program BibJourn.Exe is affected by this difference. (HistCite™ hitherto has the same problem.) I have not yet made a version of this routine for Scopus data. The other routines should work smoothly like in the case of ISI data.

 

The current version is in the development phase. Please, feel free to feedback with suggestions for improvements.

The current version was revised on February 27, 2010.
