I agree with Jurgen: my bibtex database contains now 600 references and I don't have any problem in using it with LyX. On the contrary: being a LyX users for just a few months, I am always amazed by realizing how it is easy and aeffective to insert references in papers using LyX. Obviously it would be a great problem if LyX coun't use a big database for managing references so as that LyX users would be compelled to split their database in several smaller dtabases. So I would say that there is no such a limit to entries that lyx can read from the database as Daniel says. Pierfranco
