El,

There are multiple styles that present the references by author/date. The
differences appear to be the fonts used for author names, titles, and
volumes. So finding one that is acceptable is the most parsimonious
solution.


Google is your friend with regards to BibTeX. And perhaps you might take
the plunge and move to BibLaTeX which is said to be the future.


The bibtex docs do a very good job. As long as bibtex is supported and does
what I need (which only very rarely involved journals) I'll continue using
it.

Rich

Switching style will often solve issues, fixing the BST file will

Of course did I put Mettenden into the Lentil Soup!  :-)-O
