When I insert a certain book as citation it gets wrongly sorted in the bibliography. All other titles are sorted on the last namn of the autor: Doe, John. This particular entry is sorted as: John Doe and placed out of alphabetical order. I have tested several different bibliographical styles and imported to and from the Bibtex file several times but this particular entry is still differently sorted than every other entry. Some entries from the pdf-file: Ortman, Oscar. Se dösen och dö sen gentagelser av Åke Fredsjö och västsvenskt mesolitikum. GOTARC Series B Gothenburg Archaeological Theses. Gö- teborg, 2008. Åsa Gillberg. En plats i historien: Nils Niklassons liv och arbete. Nummer 18 i GOTARC. Arkeologiska institutionen Göteborgs universitet, Göteborg, 2001. Rydh, Hanna. Oscar Montelius En vägrödjare genom årtusenden. Åhlén & Söners förlag, Stockholm, 1937. The incorrect entry is the second. It is sorted on the authours first name and not placed in any alphabetical order at all. I use Zotero+Lyz to export to a Bibtex file. I have deleted and entered the post in Zotero and re-exported it several times, but the error remains. I have tried to check the bibtex file and the entry seems to be entered in the same way as everything else. I do not think the error is due to the fact I write in Swedish. Other entries with special Swedish characters are sorted correctly What am I doing wrong? Best Regards PavelSorry, there was an error in my first message. The incorrect entry is the second one from the pdf-list, not the last!I do not know whether the circumflex on the first character impacts the sort order, but the absence of a comma suggests that BibTeX is reading the author entry as a single name, rather than first name-last name. It might help if you posted the Gillberg entry from the .bib file./Paul
You are correct, Paul!
I had to enter extra { } around the Swedish Å, then the entry sorted OK.
I guess this is the kind of strange problems you encounter as newbie in
Lyx and Bibtex!
Thanks for the help! Påvel
