Sorry for not being clear. I want a place to store my refs, that I can access (ie both read the refs but also cut'n'paste into Linux/OpenOffice and Windoze/Word) from several machines (if that means copying the database about that is okay). also like to be able to save my notes alongside the author/title/journal etc. Now looking at Jabref - trying to work out if you can very easily copy refs into OpenOffice?
