Kile ⇒ Help with Kile and bibtex

[Alda]

Hi, I know this is a stupid question...

(I have just recently installed linux and kile.)

I've started writing an article and want to insert References. I have .tex, .dvi, .pdf, .aux and .log files available.

I asked a friend to help me with the input of References and he gave me this:
\begin{thebibliography}{99}
\bibitem{T} D. TEMME, Dissipative Operators in Indefinite Scalar Product Spaces,
Doctoral Thesis, VU University of Amsterdam, (20??).
\end{thebibliography}

Then I compiled BibTeX in Kile and it opened a .blg and empty .bbl file. Still don't know where to enter the above. I found something similar to Reference Manager where you can enter something that enables you to change the output style. You enter the author, etc. but I don't know in which file I should enter this adn then are also the commands \cite, \label, \bibliographystyle, etc.

I have absolutely no clue where to start...
PLEASE help me..

Using the thebibliography environment there is is no need for processing with BibTeX. Your bibliography will appear in the document with all the bib items given in this environment.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Will you still be able to change the output styles of the references?

That's a matter of manual modifications. For using BibTeX you may take a look at the CTAN Catalogue [1]. There you will find useful information about different bibliography styles.
