Quotation marks for fields in a bib file

Post by pantera »

Hi,
1)I want to write the following in a bib file

Code: Select all

@article {abc,
author="authorname",
journal="journal of abc",
year="1999",
}
I used the far left key for the first quotation marks. For the second, I used the key next to ENTER key. It didn't work, though, and the error message is that the fields are empty.

Where on the keyboard can I get the quotation marks?

2) I made a bib like below

Code: Select all

@article {SV86,
author ="Shleifer, A. and Vishny, {R.W.} ",
title ="Large Shareholders and Corporate Control ",
journal ="Journal of Political Economy ",
year ="1986 ",
volume="94 ",
pages="461-488 ",
}
In the main body, I could use /citet or /citep without problems. However, at the end of the paper the author names don't look like the one exported from Endnote into Word. It looks like this:

Shleifer, A., Vishny, R., 1986. Large shareholders and corporate control. Journal of Political Economy 94, 461–488.



How can I make the above reference look like below? Note the letter W in red

Shleifer, A., Vishny, R.W., 1986. Large Shareholders and Corporate Control. Journal of Political Economy 94, 461-488.

Nevertheless you will be able to give an adequate problem description by providing a minimal example that clearly shows the problem(s).


Best regards and welcome to the board
