Trying to think of possible reasons on what you want/need to achieve,
I'm chiming in with another suggestion:
If all you need is a bibliography containing all references you actually
used in your dissertation, you could try dropping your document's (main)
.aux file onto BibDesk's main table (after compilation); this selects
all used entries. Then copy and paste into a new document.
Good luck,
Stephan

My problem is that at some point in the past I merged two large
bibliography files and I now need to unmerge them. Specifically I need
to delete all references that came from one of the two original files.
Can you use the "Item number" field for this purpose? You'd just have to
find the cutoff point for your original file, sorting by item number.
