superscript reference

Post by f_padia »

Hi,

I am trying to put my references in superscript. I have tried adding usepackage{overcite} to Documents/Settings/Latex Preamble but now when I try to preview my article I get the following error:

'paragraph ending before \org@@citex was complete'

the details of which are:

'I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this
control sequence to too much text. How can we recover?
My plan is to forget the whole thing and hope for the best.'

Anybody know why this happens or how I can solve it?
Thanks

Can you post a minimal working example which would allow us to to duplicate the problem?

Its ok I figured out the problem.

I had set the citation style in Document > Settings > Bibliography to 'Natbib' Natbib style - 'Numerical'

then when I added \usepackage{overcite} to the Latex preamble it was producing the error.

So then I changed the Bibliography style to Default. and put \usepackag... back in t the preamble and it worked fine...

Clearly, you cannot mix the natbib bibliography style with overcite.
