BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Bibliography list not showing page numbers

[matti0006]

Hello everybody,

I have a problem with BibTex, I use texmaker and have made a .bib-file for my bibliography that is named ref.bib, it looks as following:

@Article{Cal2000,
author = {Calude, Andreea S.},
title = {The journey of the four colour theorem through time},
journal = {The New Zealand Mathematics Magazine},
year = {2001},
OPTvolume = {38},
OPTnumber = {3},
OPTpages = {27-35},
}

In my main file I input the lines:

\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{ref}

But when I look at the result it only shows author name, title of the article and the year, not the page numbers, volume number or number, and I do not know how to change this so it does show this...

Anybody knows how to fix this?

Thanks in advance

Please explain these entries to me because I don't know where they come from. And without this knowledge it is difficult to give specific help.

For code in any shape, please use the code environment to keep a post clear.

Edit:
These kind of entries seem to be optional. But I couldn't yet find some documentation about that. Extending your code snippets to a minimal working example (MWE), the following works fine for me.

Thank you,

this does in fact fix the problem, sorry about not posting code in a code box, it was my first time posting on the forums:).

And yes, the entries are optional.
