Publisher = {pup},

should be "Publisher = pup" (no quotes).
Why does BD put the braces in? I simply entered pup and Princeton University Press in the applicable blanks in the Macros panel.



I just put the "pup" string in the entry window.

Open the editor window for this entry, choose the Publisher field, and hit cmd-r. Delete the outer curly braces and tab out of the field. It will
then show up in blue.

This should be covered in the help on macros. Look for "raw bibtex" or
something.

Sort of. There is mention of the use of raw Bibtex in the field if one wants to use macros, but it wasn't clear that that was necessary. The info sounds like there are several ways that this can be done, not that Cmd-R has to be invoked and then one can go about using macros...

        Thanks for the help.
