LyX ⇒ Way to include two separate bibliographies

[saran]

Hi Everyone,
I would like to include two separate .bib files( One containing my own publications and the second one containing the other references ) in my thesis. When i compile, the contents of the second .bib file are overridden by the first file.( I am still a novice in LyX/LaTeX). Could anyone suggest me the procedure to do this.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Saran

At least in 'bare' LaTeX use two or more .bib files is no problem. Do you have the same key names in the two files: the keys do need to be unique.

Yes, they have the same key names.( I copied one from the other). Any other suggestions?.

Thanks in advance

This does not make sense to me: you said that one file contains your publications and the other one all the others. Then they're different entries which should have different IDs. But if you copied one from the other they are the same publications instead of different ones, aren't they? Isn't that a contradiction?

Sorry, I misinterpreted the term "Key". Yes both files have unique entries and hence different ID's. Using insert TOC, I inserted two BixTex Bibliography and included the respective databases. But when i compile, the second database is overridden by the first.
