No idea, to be frank. I never used it personally. But according to the
LaTeX FAQ, \usepackage{cite} does something similar. Maybe you have more
luck with that?
Jürgen,
I'll give that a test run and see if it works better. But, for the present,
I've changed the labels to numbers rather than names and dates because the
latter produces rather ugly output in the bibliography section.
When I use BibTeX and select the name-date format for the in-text
citations, the bibliography listing at the end of the document has the
references in alphabetical order. Using the bibliography environment, the
label is placed along the left margin, then the full reference is typeset in
what appears to be a right-side column. But, if the in-text citation is long,
for example, "Wallace and Grommit 1990," then that's what's printed along the
left and all references are pushed far to the right side. Ugly and not
expected -- by me at least.
However, when I change the in-text citations to numbers, then the number is
printed along the left margin and the body of the reference inset by what
appears to be a tab stop. Much nicer.
Many thanks,
Rich
