I have a new question on bibtex/biblatex.

How do I do when a bibliographic item refers to another one:

[1] -- Author, Title, in [2]

[2]--  BlaBla, edited by Joe Doe

   
This is what the crossref field is for. Put the key of the other entry, 
e.g.:


@INCOLLECTION{HeckMay:FregesContribution,
  author = {Richard Heck and Robert May},
  title = {Frege's Contribution to Philosophy of Language},
  pages = {3--39},
  crossref = {LeporeSmith:PhilLang},
  owner = {rgheck},

 Yes but the lists of references is basically a list and if you include a
