Manually
Editing an Article Retrieve Link
There are three parameters that you can add
directly to a captured Article Retrieve link or to a master Article Retrieve link: Did, Fmt,
and Qty. The following table describes what they are and how to use them
in ProQuest Direct link syntax.
NoteIf you add a parameter that already has
an assigned value in the Link Editor, the value in the Link Editor will override the value
in your manual addition. To manually add a parameter value, first make sure that the
parameter's value displayed in the Link Editor is either blank or set to (decide
later).
