Abbie -- Are you sure your LaTeX run isn't causing an error? Vim-LaTeX will cease processing on an error. There may be a subtle LaTeX error causing the Vim-LaTeX compiler to halt early (although that usually would cause Vim-LaTeX to report an error).
After LaTeX is run (by Vim-LaTeX), an "AUX" file should be created. That "AUX" file should have a line in it that has "\bibdata" in it. It is that line that causes Vim-LaTeX to call bibtex. Are there other details that might be confusing Vim-LaTeX? (e.g., spaces in file names, etc.?) --Ted On 07/01/2010 12:33 PM, Abbie Kressner wrote: > Thank you, Ted! > > I still haven't been able to get the \ll compiler command to successful > compile a .bbl file.
