Tricky, as latex doesn't seem to support italicised small caps fonts. I guess you can acheive this if you have such a font, and insert all the latex commands necessary to switch it on and off as necessary. Thanks Helge for your neat ERT tip! Support for italicised small caps fonts is what I'm

Take a serious look at the biblatex package. It is an amazing new tool without the mistakes that were made in the early years of jurabib. Thanks for the info. The biblatex development does indeed sound very interesting. http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/exptl/biblatex/ Cheers,
