Bibliography sorted by Appearance of Citations

Post by chrisAUS »

Hi!

I have to use TeXworks with MiKTeX here at uni (used LEd beforehand). I want to create a bibliography.

I can get the bibliography up, but it does not order the items in the order of appearance. Nor does it not list resources I did not use in this paper, but papers beforehand (I was going to create ONE bib and then keep reusing it).

What do I do wrong?

These are the lines I am using:

Code: Select all

\bibliographystyle{IEEEtran}   % tried plain as style as well
\bibliography{myrefs}

Thanks in advance,
Christiane

A solution would be easier to find if you give an adequate problem description by providing a proper minimal example.

If I correctly understand, you should try a different bibstyle, like unsrt. Likewise, if you want to include a reference but not explicitly cite it, use the \nocite command instead of \cite wherever you want in the tex file. If you include \nocite{*}, all the references in the database will appear in the bibliography.
