General ⇒ need help: how to modify bst files

[nynke]

I would like to modify the elsart-harv.bst file so that the field URL is not displayed in the bibliography list, how can I do this?

[Juanjo]

It seems that, when the elsart-harv bib style is active, BibTeX writes in the bbl file lines of the form \newline\urlprefix\url{url address} . So, instead of changing the bst file, a different strategy could be to annulate the effect of those lines by temporarily redefining \newline and \urlprefix. Assuming that your bib file is called references.bib, try this:

Code: Select all

\begingroup
\newcommand{\urlprefix}[2]{}
\renewcommand{\newline}{}
\bibliographystyle{elsart-harv}
\bibliography{references}
\endgroup

Hello Juanjo,
It works fine now, thank you!
