First, to get DVI to work, go to Edit | Preferences | File formats, click on DVI, and fill in the name of your DVI viewer (probably yap if you are using MiKTeX, could be WinDVI with another distribution). If that doesn't work, you may need to put in the full path to the viewer. Once that entry is in place, you should be able to use View | DVI. See if View | DVI fills in your references (I doubt it will, but worth a try for completeness). Second, what does the LaTeX log file say when you try to view your document? (You get this in LyX from View | LaTeX Logfile, after viewing the document in either DVI or PDF.) Third, does the word "References" print as a section heading when you view the document? If not, it could be that LyX can't find the BibTeX executable. Fourth, what happens if you export the document as a LaTeX file (File | Export | LaTeX), then run latex.exe, bibtex.exe and latex.exe again (from a DOS window) using that file, and then display the resulting DVI file using your DVI viewer? -- Paul ************************************************************************* Paul A.
