Thanks, Uwe. I am attaching the offending reference, which I entered by using JabRef (that is bibtex). What is the difference between a long "-" between page numbers vs "--"? It would be helpful if somebody could also check whether this reference works in lyx by inserting it via JabRef. I noticed if I try to re-write it in JabRef, it is automatically completed (e.g. the name, the journal). It looks to me as JabRef has some internal way of remembering this reference. I got the reference from the medline internet databank. Would it help to use biblatex in this kind of errors? Wolfgang
