Hi again,
this is hopefully the last query for my thesis. I'm going to create a proper preset for my university with the hope others won't have so much trouble.
As already mentioned, I'm using natbib with scrreprt. In my BibTeX-Bibliography I have several entries as 'misc', like Blog- or Wiki-articles. As there's a rule to put at least a date for each url, I used Urldate and Lastchecked variables in BibTeX. How can I display these variables in my bibliography?
Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I forgot the most important part ... Bibliography-Style is dcu.
\bibliographystyle{dcu}
\bibliographystyle{dcu}

Hey guys, I need to print this thesis tomorrow, so any help is really appreciated.
I tried to modify the URL function in dcu.bst, but that's horrible.

dcu: lastchecked and urldate in misc entries?
This has taken me hours. I know it'll be no use to demon now but I'm hoping that if someone else out there is stuggling like I am then this may help.
I use abbrv and booklet to format my webpages in my references:
I couldn't get the lastchecked to appear. I searched for abbrv.bst on my computer opened it up and edited the file. These are the changes I made:
1. Add lastchecked in
2. Add the following code in the same sort of place as formatting for authors, editors etc.
3. Add the following line before fin.entry in booklet.
I'm sure these changes could be applied to other things and I hope this manages to help when you're trying to edit bst files.

@BOOKLET{aref, title = {A Title}, author = {A. Author}, howpublished = {Available at: \url{http://www.google.com}}, lastchecked = {29/09/09}, year = {2005}, }

2. Add the following code in the same sort of place as formatting for authors, editors etc.
FUNCTION {format.lastchecked} { lastchecked empty$ { "" } { inbrackets "Last Accessed: " lastchecked * } if$ }
3. Add the following line before fin.entry in booklet.
format.lastchecked output
