Re: Consolidating the bibliography for article submissions

not sure, I understood your problem. If you don't want to share the whole 
bib-file all.bib, but only the references cited in cited.bib, and your 
document is doc.lyx 
you could e.g. use JabRef as a reference manager and say on a command line

jabref --aux doc.aux,cited.bib all.bib
after having exported your doc.lyx to doc.tex by using fileexportlatex
You would share cited.bib with your colleagues


This is already an improvement from what I was doing, thank you. It's 
not a matter of sharing more or less files. Rather, as you surely know, 
many scientific journal have pretty strict requirements on the 
formatting of bibliography. So you come up with a .bst that suits your 
needs but, then, if you are to submit a .tex paper, you just cannot send 
it using your carefully arranged format. Or else you need to send the 
.bst as well, and trust the LaTeX competence of your correspondent.


That's why I was saying that a way to resolve the references into the 
.tex (or .lyx) document as already formatted /bibitems would be nice.


Anyway, thanks for your help. Cheers,
Manolo
