I am having an unusual problem. This has never happened before, but when compiling a document recently I notice that my references list contains every entry in my .bib file regardless of whether it is cited in the paper. I am not sure what is causing this to happen. I am using natbib.
Any help would be appreciated.
BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ BibTeX listing all references in .bib file

Hi,
search your code for the command \nocite{*} and comment it out or delete it.

Re: BibTeX listing all references in .bib file
I thought that I had accidentally entered the \nocite command somewhere, but I have not. I searched the entire document and it's not there. The weird thing is that I have been working on this paper for a while and have not had this problem until just the other day. I can't think of what has changed.
Re: BibTeX listing all references in .bib file
did you figure this out? I have the same thing, also with no \nocite command anywhere.
Re: BibTeX listing all references in .bib file
ah... I got it from \cite{*}. The asterisk was supposed to remind me to go back and put in a real reference, but it looks like it does the same as \nocite{*} in the bibliography, and I get a [0] in the text.
