Hi, I have a question regarding citations and bibliographies. I am using BibTeX and natbib.
I have an article with 3 authors (Mankiw, N.G. and Romer, D. and Weil, D.N.) and want to list all the authors in the first citation, and then subsequently denote the authors as MRW.
I.e. first citation would be:
"Mankiw, N.G. and Romer, D. and Weil, D.N. (1992)"
and then all others:
"MRW (1992)"
Is this possible? I know how to make all subsequent citations read "Mankiw et al. (1992)" using the [longnamesfirst] option but am unsure of this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Re: Citations with multiple authors
it might be possible using the experimental biblatex system. But I think Name et al is more standard.
Otherwise you could create a cite alias, see the natbib docs
