BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Harvard package stopped working

[scott.robinson]

I updated packages on MikTex 2.7 this morning. Subsequently, the harvard package does not seem to work (including on documents where it worked as recently as last week).

I have removed and re-installed the harvard package to no avail.

Are there any known problems with harvard with recent updates?

The specific error message is:

"Paragraph ended before \ltx@LocalAppendToMacro was complete"


Here is a minimal test script

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{harvard}

I found a solution: http://theseekersquill.wordpress.com/20 ... citations/

I had not entered the commands in the correct order when I applied this solution earlier.

Thanks a lot for letting us know this problem and citing the solution, Scott. This will definitely help new users like me a lot.

I'm pretty new, too. But I have been delighted by the robustness of support from the community.
