LyX ⇒ Conditional include and europecv class with bibentry package

[massimopinto]

Hello,

after several years away from LaTeX, I started again with LyX to prepare my curriculum vitae and opted for the europecv class. That worked well, the package instructions were clear, and I have a nice output with pdfLaTeX.
However, I began by inserting my publications manually, and divided them in sections according to where they were published:

• scientific journals
  conference proceeding
  tech reports
  internal reports

but Ideally, I would prefer to make this process more automatic, selecting these sections à la carte, and use a bibliography database to help me. To incorporate these sections -conditionally- into the CV, In LaTeX one could do a conditional \include, here with LyX how is this achieved? Is "Branching" the LyX solution?

I am sorry to have a second question, related to the former, and in particular to the use of multiple bibliographies in the europecv class that LyX provides. The europecv manual comes with an example that could do my case, and this requires the bibentry package. However, I cannot make it work, and I get no bibliographies inserted anywhere in the document
Taken from its manual, the idea is:

\ecvitem{}{\textsc{Publications}}
\ecvitem{}{\bibentry{pub1}}
[...]
\ecvitem{}{\bibentry{pubN}}

Has anyone in this community got that working correctly?
