Hello Morten,

You want bibtex to give your references the number as they appear in 
the text [1] for the first reference, [2] for the second.
But bibtex uses (by default) another scheme: The references are ordered 
alphabetically in the Bibliography and numberend then, so:

[1] Adams... 
comes before
[2] Bart...

That's the standard and the referneces in the text are using this 
number scheme, too (of course).

But, anyway, you can use an unsorted bibstyle like unsrt.bst and you 
will get what you want.
But NOTE: the bibliography will _not_ be alphabetically then (of 
course).

Hope this solves your problem,

J�rgen
