Mostly, I'd recommend experimentation. There are docs around for these things, but they're not always that helpful. You might also want to check "Natbib" under Document>Settings>Bibliography or use Jurabib. Docs for these are here: ftp://tug.ctan.org/pub/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/natbib/natbib.pdf http://jurabib.homelinux.org/jurabib/docu.html Yes, these are complex, but powerful. > I found that: > > For 'unpublished' items in Jabref, put the URL in the 'note' field. > For 'techreport' items, use the 'title' field. > For 'misc' items, use the 'howpublished' field. > > but none of them are clickable and none of the URL fields from Jabref > are displaying for 'article' or 'inproceedings' types.

The URL field handles that automatically. Also, make sure you have "\usepackage{url}" in your preamble. That handles breaking URLs better. > This is my preamble: > > \usepackage[bookmarks]{hyperref} > \usepackage{lmodern} > * > *Does that mean I am using hyperref already? > Yes. >> BibLaTeX will handle this much better. >> > Will BibLaTex work with my current tools like Jabref etc, or is it a > whole separate thing? > It's explicitly been made compatible with JabRef. It totally rocks. LyX support will come, I think, pretty much as soon as the main components stabilize. It's pretty alpha right now.
