In the bibtex file, do you have the "year" filed as 2001a, 2001b? That's not
necessary, entries by the same author and w/ the same year will be
automatically appended a, b, etc. by bibtex!

And bibtex will automatically ignore anything after the first four characters....

Hello everyone,

this is my first post here and I hope it's ok to ask. I already did an
intensive search on the internet regarding my question but I somehow can't
find any pages that are related.

I have a problem with the implementation of a BibTex library in Lyx/Latex.
The problem occurs when I name publications from the same author and the
same year with a,b,c etc.

So I want it to occur like this in the Document: (Tanaka 2001b) but after
having the file compiled to a pdf the outcome is somewhat like this (Tanaka
001b).  For some reason the citation only refers to the last four letters in
the field "year" so the first number is not written in the pdf.

I use natbib with apa-style and set "\bibpunct[: ]{(}{)}{}{}{ }{}" to make
the citation more customlike

Does anyone experienced a similar problem? If yes, can you could give me
some advice?

Thanks, ben
