As Georg wrote, it is conceptually wrong, since LaTeX has a PATH for bibtex files. I admit that lots of people do not add their bibtex files there, but it should be possible nonetheless to select a file from there without entering the whole path. Think of a document that is used on different machines that have different TeX setups. Moreover, I'd like to educate the users to put their files in the path. And I want to have that list immediately, because I always put my bibfiles there. That's probably because I'm working with quite large bibtex files that are used over and over again in articles and books. But that's mainly what bibtex was designed for, wasn't it? Jürgen
