Hi,
I'm fairly new to latex.
I'm writing a paper at present for IEEE journal using, IEEEtran Latex class and IEEEtran BIBTex style file.
Though i have made a .bib file of my own similar to the IEEEexample.bib file, (with the same name as that of my .tex file ) and saved it in the same folder. At the end of my .tex file i have also included these two commands
\bibliographystyle{IEEEtran}
\bibliography{IEEEabrv,paper}
\end{document}
I'm using WinEdt, by the way. So, when i run the Texify, The error that i'm getting is "something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item". Which is because i haven't included the {thebibliography} enviornment in my .tex file, as i'm using IEEEtran BiBtex style file , so i don't need this enviornment.
How do i get rid of this error, any suggestions would be appreciated.
regards

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Re: error with, IEEEtran bibtex package
Most likely there is a problem in your .bib file (for example, syntax or symbol). Do you get a complete .bbl file after running texify.exe? The bibliography environment is in the .bbl file, and I think that there is probably a problem in it which has been caused by an incorrect entry in the .bib file.
