LaTeX forum ⇒ BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ using apacite

[brown]

I'm pretty new to using LaTex still... I'm using MikTex with the LaTex Editor (LED).

I've installed apacite and apa for a paper I have to write. My problem is getting my bibliography to work, I think the apa style is fine. I had problems with english.apc file, but found the file and installed it.

So I have the following code Test.tex:

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] (untitled.tex)

\documentclass{article}
 
\usepackage{apacite}
 
\begin{document}
Sometimes people wonder how to cite things \cite{milgram1970elc}
 
\bibliographystyle{apacite}
\bibliography{TestBib}
 
\end{document}

and the following TestBib.bib:

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] (untitled.tex)

@article{milgram1970elc,
   title={{The Experience of Living in Cities}},
   author={Milgram, S.},
   journal={Science},
   volume={167},
   number={3924},
   pages={1461--1468},
   year={1970}
}

And I get a warning that "Citation `milgram1970elc' undefined on input line 6."

Is this a problem with my code? Or with LED?

Thanks for your time.

Perhaps you didn't run BibTeX on your document. Your editor should support that with a button or something else. Refer to the help function or to other resources on the homepage.

Thanks for the help. I tried TeXnicCenter as it has a built in Bibtex command. Apparently LED needed me to create a batch file, which I do not know how to do.

Feel free to report about your success with TeXnicCenter (TXC). I'm sure others are also interested in that.
