I have downloaded the trial today of v. 6 of the software and it is utterly unuseable for doing academic research in which the end product is a journal article. There is simply no way to relate a citation to a note—-called a “document”—-I guess you could insert the citation into the note itself but that would not enable you to write about the cited article as a whole in one section of your article. To do this, you need a relational database which allows you to create topics and their descendants in a tree-like structure. Brilliant is the product that fits the bill although I am still working on mastering export of selected topics to MSWord. http://www.brilliantdatabase.com
