Thanks, Richard. It works now.

In summary, this changes the default path to .bib files:

2 add a BIBINPUTS variable with the path to the bib files (as you instructed);
3 reboot.


I don't think the reboot should be necessary. If LyX is running, though, you might have to restart it (not positive). If you're running LaTeX (MiKTeX?) in a DOS shell, you definitely will have to close the DOS shell and reopen it.

Changes to environment variables should take effect immediately in the sense that any program (or DOS shell) started after the change should see the new environment variables. Stuff that's already running inherited whatever environment variables were in effect when they started, and their environments are not updated.
