Sure, but why not save them the effort? If somebody (me) is willing to track down the links, what benefit is there in not providing them? The Bibliography already provides links to other items -- why not the books as well? -- Michael Fuhr http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/ ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings

Should I update the biblioentry id's, or are they keys that shouldn't be changed so other documents that refer to them don't need to be updated? For example, should DATE94 remain the same, or should it become DATE04 (or DATE2004)? I see that BOWMAN93 refers to a 1996 edition of that book, so I'm guessing the id's should remain untouched. Just wanted to be sure, though. Thanks. -- Michael Fuhr http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/ ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
