I think you are right! I just realized that.

But I see now there is this page that describes a different process for using BibTeX: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography I will take a look today and try to incorporate the new best practice for using the database and its citations. If you have any suggestions I will try and incorporate them. -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com
