APA6 would be

\usepackage[style=apa,natbib=true,backend=biber]{biblatex}

\DeclareLanguageMapping{canadian}{canadian-apa}

I guess.

Hi Bernd,

Did you hear that knocking sound? It was me pounding my head against the wall.

"authortitle" !!! I was tired enough last night (≈ 23:00 or so) and the word "title" did not register. I must have read it four times and I think I even typed it once.

I always use American Psychology Association (APA) format it wants (author, date) and I somehow interpreted title as date. Arrgh. My excuse, and I'm sticking to it, is that I don't believe I have ever seen an authortitle used.

I changed it to authoryear and it worked! It does not seem to be giving me full APA6 yet but that should come.

Thanks for all the help.

    Because that is indeed the title. I agree it is not very handy.
    Therefore I changed it in JabRef into title "Multi-script,
    multilingual, multi-character issues for the online environment:"
    and subtitle "proceedings of a workshop sponsored by the IFLA
    Section on Cataloguing, Istanbul, Turkey, August 24, 1995". See
    attachment.

    It almost works.  It compiles and I get a Reference list
    (Article) or Bibliography (Koma-book) but the citation has the
    entire reference printing in the text. Weird.

    Have a look at the attached pdf and lyx files.  I assume you have
    the .bib file :). Don't forget to change the path as I am in
    Linux.  I did that once and spent 20 minutes wondering what I'd done.

    I must have some minor setting not quite right but I've changed
    so many in the last 2 days I probably am lost.




    Thanks for all the help,

        PS: found it!

        \usepackage[style=authortitle,natbib=true,backend=biber]{biblatex}

        and

        \usepackage[style=authoryear,natbib=true,backend=biber]{biblatex}.

        John, does it work with you?

        Jürgen, one last thing:
        John and I are unable to change the output of my .bib file
        to (author, year) or (author, title) .
        Do you have a solution?
        I have been tweaking the settings, but nothing seems to work.
        Regards,
        Bernd
