Hi Gregor Thanks for your help.
I downloaded the latest jabref from the jabref website: http://www.jabref.org/ The latest version is: JabRef-3.7.jar It works perfect. Is there a way of installing it on ubuntu. I'm not very computer savvy though..... Thanks Koli On 14/11/16 19:48, gregor herrmann wrote: > On Mon, 14 Nov 2016 14:09:41 -0000, sn0m wrote: > >> This is not the last issue.
