YES, I want the bibliography to list the entries chronologically. And thanks for your ideas. I tried Richard's both suggestions (1) natbib does have option "sort". however its function is to "orders multiple citations into the sequence in which they appear in the list of references". I definitely can not cite references chrononically. (2) I can not find a good document about how to modify a .bst file so as to list reference chrononically. Any links?
Thanks in advance. Michael On 11/2/06, Richard Heck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Sorry, I'm not sure what's being asked here. Do you mean you want the bibliography to list the entries chronologically? If so, then the order in which items are listed is determined by the bst file (apalike, or whatever) or, in some cases, by options passed to a package such as natbib. There isn't a specific option in LyX for this. Richard
