Hello and Thank you for your replies!
I have tested the solutions. I use a Swedish style, sweplnat, that (generally) works well. When I try Günther's solution, Shött disappears from the Bibliography. It may be that I am not enough familiar with LyX and make some basic mistake. I have looked into Wolfgang's solution, but I must do some checking up on how to install/run Biblatex and Biber first. I will do more tests and perhaps drop Zotero/LyZ and test JabRef. I also think I must learn more LyX. It is truly a fantastic program, but is sometimes a bit strange for a newcomer!
Thank you very much!
Hej!

Hello again!
I asked earlier about how to handle Swedish letters in lyx/bibtex:
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg82909.html. The
solution works fine. Now I have run into a similar problem. I have several authors with different non English characters in their names. How do I get
them sorted in correct order in the Lyx bibliography? An example is:

1. Author: Schött
2. Author: Schück

In Sweden ö is the last character in the alphabet and Schött should thus
be sorted after Schück. The output file in Lyx does it the other way
around, like above.
Schött is written: {Harald Sch{"o}tt} in the .bib file
Schück is written: {Henrik Sch{\"{u}}ck} in the .bib file

I have several similar cases. Swedish seems to be a hard language to use
with bibtex.

Indeed. You could try if there is a "swedish ..." style that solves
this for you, or you can help bibtex, e.g. with the suggestion from
btxdoc.pdf:

  in the database (*.bib) file:
 @PREAMBLE{ "\newcommand{\noopsort}[1]{} "
         # "\newcommand{\singleletter}[1]{#1} " }

  author = {{\noopsort{Harald Sch~tt}}Harald Sch{\"o}tt}
  . . .
  author = {Henrik Sch{\"u}ck}

LaTeX will then ignore the \noopsort, but BibTeX will use it for
sorting.

Hej,
