It seems that elsarticle bst file works only with the elsarticle class.

What you could use is the custom-bib package, a companion to natbib. It is a 
special latex file. When you run latex on it, it will ask you many questions 
and then spit a custom bst file. One of the questions is the place of the 
'year'.

Then you put your custom bst file in a place where LaTex can find it, 
refresh the LaTex tree and you can use it in LyX.

Easier than learning BibLaTex

  Well, that seems reasonable.

Is this something you are willing to do? It has a very steep learning curve
but is very well documented and supported. Your problem is trivially solved
as well. Lyx can also use biblatex with a small amount of work that also
very well documented.

~Ben,

  Back when I was in grad school (and doing a post-doc) in the early Pleistocene
and publishing in journals the bibliographic style was Author. Year. Title.
Volume:pages. So, that's what I kept doing.

  I see now that the preferred style has apparently changed so that almost
all put the year at the end of the listing. Seems less than useful to me if
the citation is author-year, why not list the bibliography the same way?

  Anywho, it really is a very minor issue. After all, I don't read the
bibliographies in the white papers and other documents I produce for clients
and regulators that have a bibliography and citations in the text. :-) Since
it seems to be a hassle, I'll just let it go (again.)

Re: Bibliography formatting

[Brian Kidd]

Charles,

This can be changed by adding two lines to your preamble. First, add  
the super option to the natbib package. Make sure to change your  
citation style to numerical under the Bibliography setting otherwise  
LyX will spit out the warning about having conflicting natbib  
definitions. Second, add the renewcommand for biblabel to give the  
number period format. Note that there are a number of other natbib  
options (e.g. comma, sortcompress, etc.) and bib commands (e.g.  
bibfont, bibsep) to play with. I think the natbib manual might have  
some examples. Otherwise you should be able to search on the web for  
some examples.

You need to uncheck Natbib altogether and choose Default (numerical).

  some examples.

Charles,

This can be changed by adding two lines to your preamble. First, add  
the "super" option to the natbib package. Make sure to change your  
citation style to numerical under the Bibliography setting otherwise  
LyX will spit out the warning about having conflicting natbib  
definitions. Second, add the renewcommand for biblabel to give the  
number period format. Note that there are a number of other natbib  
options (e.g. comma, sort, etc.) and bib commands (e.g.  
bibfont, bibsep) to play with. I think the natbib manual might have  
some examples. Otherwise you should be able to search on the web for  
some examples.

Hi Brian, 
  I tried to add those options to the preamble, and I get this error

 \renewcommand 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
The package natbib has already been loaded with options:   [numbers]
There has now been an attempt to load it with options   [super] Adding
the global options:   numbers,super to your \documentclass declaration
may fix this. Try typingto proceed.

So I tried to add that into the options of the documentclass(which is
report fyi) and still nothing...  Any ideas?

Re: Bibliography formatting

[Richard Heck]

You need to uncheck "Natbib" altogether and choose "Default (numerical)".
