LyX ⇒ natbib | Multiple Citations and different Page Numbers

[beigedeath]

Hi,

I am trying to use the citation tool to add multiple citations, each with different page numbers, to a Lyx document. The style I am using is Harvard, and I am using Natbib.

What I would like is something like this:
(Jones, 2010, p. 12; Smith, 2003, pp. 21 - 23)

What I am doing now is bringing up the citation dialog and adding the entries to the list on the right. However, I would normally put the page numbers referenced in the text after box, but as I have more than one entry this will only appear after the last entry in the list. Is there a way to insert text between the entries so I can get something like above?

Thanks.

Not in a single \citep, no. Use \citetext{\citealp[p.~12]{jones2010}; \citealp[pp.~21--23]{smith2003}} (there ought to be some way to get the ";" separator from the citation-style, but there isn't. Well, it's available as \NAT@sep, but that's not a very useful name...as for how to do it in LyX: no idea)

Oh ok... Looks like I'll have to put the code in manually, like you said.

I'll try it when I next get the chance.

Much appreciated.
