BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ BibTex only reads some of the references listed in .bib-file

[Jan_EcoFin_1993]

Hey guys,

I have a strange problem that I can't seem to find the answer to. My .bib file looks something like this (this is only a short extract). When I compile through Bibtex, only some of the references show up in the reference list. In this extract this would be the 4. and 6. (Barberis and Chabi-Yo). I don't find any differnces between those entries and the others. Any idea why this would be a problem? I'm using TeXworks by the way. Thanks for your help

Do you cite them all in your document? Does the log file contain any errors or warnings?

[Jan_EcoFin_1993]

I don't think all of the sources are cited yet. There are however several references that were quoted that do not show up. The log-file contains a couple of warnings, but those are all about the citations that could not be found (which is the problem in the first place).

I do have the same problem if I read the data in via filecontents

Hi Jan,

welcome to the forum!

You could try the \nocite{*} command.
