I am using natbib to introduce my citations. It happens that when I have a reference for which I have written a 'Note' in the bib file, the note's text is included (together with authors, title, year,...) in the bibliography generated for my document. Is there a way I can prevent this? That is, can I somehow tell LyX/Latex the fields I want to include/not include?
Not without writing your own BibTeX style, which you probably do not
want to do. But this is the normal and expected behavior: The note field
is for additional information to be appended to the bibliographic
reference. (See btxdoc.dvi.) If you're not using it for that
purpose---if, say, you're using it to add your own notes regarding an
article---then what you need to do is use some other field in your
BibTeX file. JabRef uses "review" for this purpose, but you can make up
your own fields and call it what you wish. And obviously, you can do a
search-and-replace on the .bib file to make the change.
