Hi,

I use Lyx 1.6.3 with JabRef 2.4.2 to create the bibliography entries. Perhaps this question is not really Lyx specific, but I hope that others of you already solved a problem like this.
I want to reference a standard with 10 parts.
To get my preferred notation, I use the field "author" to set the name of the standard with the part, for example:
STANDARD - 1
STANDARD - 2
.....
STANDARD - 10

The problem is that the order in the output pdf is wrong. It's sorted like:
STANDARD - 1
STANDARD - 10
STANDARD - 2
.....

Is it somehow possible, to change this wrong order like in the example above? (Without changing my preferred notation) Perhaps I only ignored some settings?

I don't really understand what you are trying to do, but I'd think the obvious thing would be to use 01, 02, etc, instead of 1, 2, etc.


What I want to do is to change the order of the list of literature at the end of my document. It seems that bibtex or lyx/latex decides this order based on the name of the author. Is it possible to have effect on this order in another way, than to change this name? (I don't really like the 01, 02 .... to get the right order ;) )

The only other order I know that is easily accessible is order of appearance in the document. See the natbib documentation for how to do this.

If you want some kind of "custom" order, then you can get it, but you would have to modify the BibTeX style (*.bst file) that you are using. This is possible but not for the meek, as the BibTeX language is really nasty.
