Re: limit in number of reference entries in *.bib coming from jabref and used in lyx ? entries in reference list are cut off
Hi all, thank you very much for your quick and useful responses. 1. To cut the file in two did not make a difference. 2. I found a 'dodgy' reference in my list at Wa... (alphabetical order). After that was removed, everything worked fine:). @ Richard: Great hints. It must have been an illegal character, which I could not immediately identify when looking at that reference and it was not the first one that didn't appear. I will next time rather launch LyX from a terminal and I will try ASCII encoding, but have to see how I go with my special characters. Thank you for the kind offer of help. @ Uwe: I thank you very much for your relevant comment; and you are right. My list has resulted from the merger of a five year, multi-disciplinary project. So, yes, I won't need all of them and should have 'cleaned out earlier' for the sake of overview at least. And I do my best not to torture the reviewer with inadequate referencing, though I might have been quite thorough. @ Rainer: I would love to know that, too, how to identify non-ASCII characters in a bibtex file. Delighted that things have progressed thanks to you all and I learned s.th. again.

Does it help if you split your bib-file into 2 files and include them both to LyX? If not, does it help if you are using another citation style file (not harvard)?

Are you sure anybody will/can have a look at so many citations? I mean its the duty of the professors reviewing/supervising your thesis to look that the citations you made are correct. This already a lot of work for 100 citations. How do they do this for more than 1000? regards Uwe

limit in number of reference entries in *.bib coming from jabref and used in lyx ? entries in reference list are cut off
Hi all, I run Lyx 1.6.6.1 under Windows and use Jabref 2.6 to create my *.bib file for the references I use in Lyx via InsertList/TOCBiBTex Bibliography'. That all worked fine so far for the last 2 years, gaining insights about coding in jabref and dabandoning endnote for good on this way so far. What confuses me these days, is that I cannot recall to have changed anything relevant from last week to this in my *.bib reference file. I might have added about 10 more references or deleted a couple. However, the last times I tried to use my added bibliography in Lyx via Insert Citation it has been missing all entries in my *.bib file or jabref library alphabetically onwards from Wi*** to Z. The number of my references in my library is 1898 (!). Is there a cut-off I am not aware off? Information that might be important: - coding of my library: Cp1252 - BiBTexbibliography style in Lyx: elsarticle-harv I will cut the bibliography in two shorter lists and save them separately as *.bib and try to use them together in lyx (a new and my old files) for starters. Any other suggestions? Any help would be highly appreciated (my thesis is due in 4 weeks...yet again good timing, isn't it?:)). Thanks a lot! Kind regards, Birte

Fwd: Output track changes in pdf with lyx 1.6 error
