AFAIK you need some extra packages for the first option, but the second one is easy. Don't include any bibliography in child documents, only include one in the master. If you want to enter a new citation in a child you need to open the child from the master doc, otherwise LyX will not know which .bib file is used. Georg

If you want to enter a new citation in a child you need to open the child from the master doc, otherwise LyX will not know which .bib file is used. To make it easier to insert citatiosn (if you still need to), you can insert a bibliography within each child document, but place it inside a *comment*. That way LaTeX won't see it, but LyX will know what .bib-files to scan for when showing you the available citations. /C -- Christian Ridderström, +46-8-768 39 44 http://www.md.kth.se/~chr
