Sorting Citations in the Bibliography

Post by sumesh »

Is there a way to sort the references in the way they are cited in the {thebibliography} environment automatically? The journal does not accept bib files and hence I am forced to use this. I see several old posts, but suggested answers like 'unsrt', 'plain' etc do not seem to be working.

Thanks,

Take the .bbl file (which is what gets generated with BibTeX) and paste it into your document, in place of the the \bibliography command. That's all the \bibliography command does anyway. The journal should be fine with that---they just don't want to have to run BibTeX /for/ you, especially if they don't have the specific style file and/or abbreviations you are using (and I don't blame them).
