What you really want is to convert \bibitem commands to BibTeX, which isn't part of BibDesk per se. This link has a Perl script that should get you started, although you'll have to fix the entries manually afterwards (and BibDesk can help there). http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/tex2bib.html hth, Adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
