Assuming you are on Unix you may find like I did that xemacs/emacs bibtex-mode is very useful while creating your bibs.
You may find it helpful to go to the lyx tutorial (Help->Tutorial) and read sections 3.6 and 5.2.5 ... not sure if you have to follow the whole tutorial up to that point for it to be useful though. (Help->Extended Features) -> (Navigate->Supplemental tools->Preping a bib...)seems SLIGHTLY more useful. The following may help, there are example bib files and list of other links. http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/BibTeX Sorry, if there is nothing specific here, I get the impression you need to start with some of the fundamentals, and btxdoc.dvi & Help->Extended Features are not that long. Note: Help->Extended Features indicates "Then, at the very end of your document, select Insert->Lists & TOC->BibTeX Reference." but you may do that where ever in your document you want to see your references listed, but in only one place in the document). -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter
