If you're retrieving data in a format that BibDesk supports natively (e.g. BibTeX or RIS), you can use an "External File Group" to read from a URL. If you're retrieving it in some other format (e.g. XML), it sounds like you might want a "Script Group" that reads BibTeX data from standard output of a command-line tool or from an AppleScript. I've written a couple of these using NSXMLDocument to grab data from RSS feeds, and source is available if you want. -- Adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
