One documented way to select the sort order in exports is: 1. Sort the bibliography view by the chosen criterion by clicking on field headers (for example, for year-first author, click first on "year" to sort by year, and then on "First Author" to sort by author, which in my experiments is stable with respect to the year sort). 2. Select the bib entries to export. 3. Go to "Export", select the appropriate template and set "Only export selected items" (which ensures that the current sort order is used when calling the template). I've just tried this successfully with one of my bibliographies. -- F ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
