For automated compilation of references, I use a standalone compilation of bibtex databases, with multiformat export (dvi, ps, pdf, html and *rtf* - w/latex2rtf). Maybe it's easier to manage the bibliographic part from the bib source until the rtf is OK ? (you may use whatever dedicated bst to get what you want, and filter externally the database e.g. for sorting). You will loose the citations in the text in this process, but does the end-user care about cross-referencing ? -- Jean-Pierre
