Paul,

The .bst file is the same one I use for all documents: bibstyle = Plain,
bibliography generator = bibtex, style file = authordate4.

Rich,

The authordate4.bst file seems to be the source of the \sc commands. I 
just grepped my copy, and I find \sc in three different places, 
including author and editor names. It may just be out of date.

There is no '\sc' in the entry. The kbibtex file settings have

Looking at the entire error report _all_ references are preceeded by the
'\sc' font command, but they don't show up in the database. Where might
these error originate?

I should have mentioned that lyx Document -> Settings -> Fonts -> Encoding
is Default and the 'use real small caps' is unchecked.

That might be reasonable. On Linux, the status bar flashes messages as
reconfiguration happens, but for some reason that does not happen on
Windows. This is a known issue, but we do not know how to fix it.
