sorting of bibliography
Hi, Does anyone know how I can sort the bibliography on last name? Right now it sorts on the first name of the author. LyX uses natbib as the format. Regards, Marco -- The Law of the Perversity of Nature: You cannot determine beforehand which side of the bread to butter.

Yes the headings style is fancy and I put \rfoot{} in the preamble. But I discovered that the footer is not shown on pages with the chapter headers.

how to make sections in bibliography?
Hi, I've tried all day to section my bibliography, but I keep getting errors. The "sectioned bibliography" in document settings is checked. Also two seperate bibtex databases are created, and added these to the bibliography in LyX. When unchecking "sectioned bibliography", the bibliography works fine, but then it is not sectioned. The errors I get are: Missing $ inserted Extra }, or forgotten $ Missing } inserted Do I need to do something else to make sectioned bibliographies work in LyX?

If you can create a very minimal example LyX file that reproduces the problem, consider posting it to the list so that others can have a look too. Also, you may export your problematic file to latex (pdflatex), run pdflatex on it from the command line, and see if you get any more details in the output. After a long search I found out that it wasn't the TOC as I thought (well maybe indirectly) but the use of a self made bibliography style. I made my own .bst with makebst some time ago. It seems that this caused suddenly (don't know why) problems with the bibliography and the TOC. After replacing the style to jurabib in the bibliography and changing the citation style (in document settings) to jurabib, the error messages are gone. When playing around with the style, similar errors come back so for now I'm using jurabib and try to make a .bst as I want it later.

citation question marks and no bibtex references
Hi, I tried to make my own .bst file with makebst. But when I try to use this generated file and view my dvi-output I get question marks for all of my citation references and no reference list. In LyX itself all looks fine. My LaTeX log file shows some warnings like: ... LaTeX Warning: Citation 'author' on page XX undefined on input line XXX ... And this is probably my problem. But now I have no idea where to look next to solve this problem. Does anyone know what I should do? Thanks, Marco -- There is no time like the pleasant.

lyx-1.2 and accents
Hi, In lyx 1.1.6 I used to create accents by clicking on the bar below and typing a command (like accent-umlaut). In lyx 1.2 I'm not able to use the bar to use it as a commandline input anymore. Does anyone knows how I can get accents in lyx 1.2?
