General ⇒ How can I show the bibligraphy in the text

[spiegboy]

I need to list some publications in the text but NOT in the bibliography at the end.
something like

text,
1, publication 1
2, publication 2
text

How can i do that? thanks a lot

Bibliographies are just list-like environments. If you plan to write a numbered bibliography, you can adapt an enumerate environment.

[spiegboy]

i understand, but what i mean is that is that any command available to link the bibliography from the database to be presented in the text directly.

something like

text
\citecommand{bibkey}
text

,,,,,
bibliography{}
bibliographystyle{}

thanks a lot

The multibib package may be what you are searching for. It will allow you to generate a secondary bibliography.

You also can try footbib, that make bibliographical items appear in footnotes.

I will give a try, by the way, what does 'B.A.' stand for? your name?

[spiegboy]

i cannot use multibib to link the database automatically, here is an example

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{multibib}
\newcites{pub}{publication list}
\begin{document}
References to the \TeX book
and to Lamport’s \LaTeX\ book, which appears
only in the references\citepub{Tian2003}.
Finally a cite to a Postscript tutorial
\cite{Phana}.
\bibliographystylepub{plain}
\bibliographypub{Phan}

\renewcommand{\refname}{Postscript References}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{Phan}
\end{document}

the error show that the bibliography cited by the newcite command are undefined.
there is no file pub.bbl found

@spiegboy: yes, its stands for my name.

spiegboy,

As explained in the manual of multibib, for each new bibliography, there is an assocated aux file. In your case, there should exist the file pub.aux after a LaTeX run. You need to run BibTeX on this file by yourself in order to generate pub.bbl. Once obtained this last file, the next LaTeX run will produce the complete document. You may need another compilatation to set references correctly.

To run BibTeX on pub.aux, you should open a console and type "bibtex pub" or "bibtex path_to_pub/pub". If you have \write18 enabled, you may try the following trick: before \documentclass, add the line

\immediate\write18{bibtex pub}

This launches BibTeX on pub.aux every time you compile. Once obtained pub.bbl, if you don't make any more changes to the bibliography, you can comment out that line.

thanks , it works, 2 questions remain
1. how can i open a console directly from the TeXnicCentre with the project root as the default root, so that i can easily input the command 'bibtex pub' intead of locating the directory first by appealling to 'cmd' in windows
2, how can i enable or activate that code \write18?

Thanks a lot
