Morten,

        It is good hear that you are making so much progress. There must be 
some way 
that Writer determines that two bibliographic entries are from the same  
reference so that only only bibliographic line is produced. 

I would have guessed that it was the  entries with the same 'Identifier' as 
in-
===========================
<text:p text:style-name="Standard">

Sample document with a citation 

<text:bibliography-mark text:identifier="Veer1996a" 
text:bibliography-type="book" text:address="New York" 
text:author="Peter van der Veer" text:booktitle="Riots and Pogroms" 
text:editor="Paul Brass" 
text:pages="154-76" 
text:publisher="NYU Press" 
text:title="The Construction of Violence and Public Space in 
Hindu Nationalism" 
text:year="1996" 
text:isbn="1223213123">

[Veer1996a]

</text:bibliography-mark> 

and a bibliographic table.

</text:p>
===========================
I will be some research and testing over the next two days and let you know 
what I find.

regards

David
