BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ BibTeX numbering

[mco]

For some reason, latex is numbering my citations in the reverse order. The numbers used in the text match the numbers in the final list, however, the citation numbering begins from the largest number and decreases as we add more citations.

Please post an example. We need to know which packages and BibTeX style you are using.

I will try to attach the input & output files to this post. I am using TexShop on a Macintosh computer.

Thanks!

The 'plain' bibtex style sorts the references in alphabetical order. In your case you just happen to cite them in reverse alphabetical order. If you want the references to appear in the order you cite them, use the 'unsrt' style.
