After reading this reply, I tried these: 1) place cursor in a bibliography item 2) press Alt-a then Shift-C I inserted a capital C. 1) place cursor in a bibliography item 2) select "comment" from paragraph style pull-down menu, the bibliography item changes color and becomes a comment. mini-windows shows (M-p S-C) Citation pop-up window doesn't show the label or key of this bibliography item. I also tried to open citation pop-up window in main.lyx, then switch to chapter1.lyx using the Documents pull-down menu and re-open citation pop-up window. Nothing shows up in the pop-up window. Please point out what I am doing wrong. I am using lyx-1.1.6fix4. Thanks. Bolin --- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
