Convert ENW to ENLX

QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert ENW to ENLX?
Yes - ENW converts to ENLX.

.enlx is a COMPRESSED EndNote LIBRARY, not an exchange file - you don't 'convert' an import file into it. Import the .enw into EndNote; the references become part of your library, which EndNote can then package as a compressed .enlx to move between machines.
