Hello,
I use BibTeX to manage the publications in my CV. I would like to mark the main publications with left located stars, such as illustrated below.
Publications in journals:
[1] Reference 1
* [2] Reference 2
[3] Reference 3
[4] Reference 4
[5] Reference 5
* [6] Reference 6
[7] Reference 7
Does anyone have any idea how to do this? I appreciate any help.
Regards.
Americo

Re: How to add a tag to a reference using the BibTex?
Depends on the packages in use. I think it can be easily done with biblatex and biber. You could divide it into two bibliographies as well, make it more obvious to the reader.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Re: How to add a tag to a reference using the BibTex?
In fact I am using multibib package, since I split the references in two groups: (i) Publications in journals; (ii) Publications in conferences.
I would like to tag only the main publications in journals. It seems to me that biblatex and biber are incompatible with multibib. Any suggestion?

Yes, biblatex is incompatible with multibib. It can do all bib-related stuff with ease and makes all other bibliography related packages obsolete. Can you show a minimal working example?
