 You shouldn't use the old \bibliography format with bibtex. Use
 biblatex
 with biber instead. Then it is much more easier to handle author names
 mit special characters, e.g. Aksın, with a dotless i

Hello everyone,

very basic question. I`m looking fpr bibliography style in German, 
that looks like the Citavi-Basic style added below. I alreadyy tried 
Din 1505 but it didnt fit. Is there an overview over the avaliable 
styles so I can look for the right one? Or do you know which one I 
should use for my thesis?


And another question: I can change the style in the settings at the 
beginning and I can change the style when adding the bibliography. But 
I didn´t get the difference. Can you explain that?

just fine. You might have to configure JabRef to make easy use of some

Sorry, that looks a bit too complicated for me. LyX has support for

biblatex (http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex), also check out the 
general BibTeX section in the LyX wiki 
(http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/BibTeX). Many of these packages have a lot 
of styles they come with and offer easy configuration of custom styles. 
In other words: you surely can achieve the style you wish in LaTeX and 
if you can do so in LaTeX, you can do so in LyX as well. Unfortunately 
I do not know any good ressources for bibliography and citation styles 
in LaTeX, but may someone else does?

Do you know of any good site that helps you in the step-by-step

Sorry, that looks a bit too complicated for me. LyX has support for
default LaTeX referencing (numerical), Natbib, Jurabib and even
biblatex (http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex), also check out the
general BibTeX section in the LyX wiki
(http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/BibTeX). Many of these packages have a lot
of styles they come with and offer easy configuration of custom styles.
In other words: you surely can achieve the style you wish in LaTeX and
if you can do so in LaTeX, you can do so in LyX as well. Unfortunately
I do not know any good ressources for bibliography and citation styles
in LaTeX, but may someone else does?

Re: Bibliography Style

Do you know of any good site that helps you in the step-by-step
process of using BibLaTeX? The package manual is a good reference, but
not a good beginners help source.

I would like to see a sample file. I googled for one with no results.

Thx for your help.

I have been looking for such a site myself and I did not find one. 
Also, I find the manual of biblatex not very user-friendly written. 
Because of this I started editing some stuff that I know in the LyX 
wiki. There you will find instructions on how to use biblatex in LyX 
(so far it is possible with some effort) and a short biblatex style 
guide: http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex
I will add some information about customizing biblatex in LyX as soon 
as I learn how to do that :)

Thanks Max. BTW, is there any application that helps in the migration
from a BibTeX database to a BibLaTeX one? What about maintaining it? I
mean, something like JabRef.

Re: Bibliography Style

Thanks. I have checked the companion files and they give a good lesson
on how to use it, but not in the style design process.

BTW, do you know how to install BibLaTeX in MikTeX? It doesn't appear
as a package in the package manager.

What do you mean by editor : a graphical interface to create a custom bst

There is a latex package called custombib that will create a custom bst file
by asking you questions but it is rather limited. If you are looking for a
bst style for a specific journal, there is a database on the internet :
http://jo.irisson.free.fr/bstdatabase/



The custombib package not only creates a .bst file, it records the 
instructions to generate the .bst file in a file with a .dbj extension. 
 If you have the .dbj file from a customized .bst file, you can edit 
the .dbj (it essentially contains the prompts and responses to the 
interview that custombib conducts in designing your style) and recompile 
the .bst file with modifications, without going through the entire 
interview again.


If you need to tweak something in the .bst file that is not covered by 
custombib, you have to edit the .bst file directly in a text editor.  (I 
had to do this once, with guidance kindly provided by people on the list.)

I tend to put translator info in the Note field. Whatever you put  
there

will be set at the end of the entry, using apalike (and probably

it's already been done, however.
