bibtex

[Polina Minkovski]

Hi everyone,
I'm having the most difficult time compiling a bibliography using Bibtex.

I decided to use the NATBIB package and the APSR style...as they are the closest resembling the format of bibliography that I would like.

The three main issues are the following:
1. In the .bib file, the 'misc', the 'series', the 'thesis', the 'unpublished' tagged items do not show up in the compiled bibliography with FULL information provided in the .bib file. So, for example...something tagged
@misc{labor,
author = {labour commission},
year = {2000},
publisher = {mimeo},
title = {survey},
pages = {200--203}
}
would come out as: Labour Commission. 2000. "survey".
(where would the other fields disappear, and how do I force the tex file to read them? Is there a .bst file that I could go into to modify the settings?)

2. Authors that have an article...ie. Paolo van Gust (nonexistent author - just an example) - would be put in alphabetical order according to V not G...how do I get around that loop hole?

3. If a book has more than one editor, the bibliography will still say 'Ed.' instead of "eds."...once again, is there a way to modify the .bst file or force natbib to acknowledge the difference between the existence of a single and multiple editors?

Thank you

Try to create a custom *.bst file that suits your
needs. See custom-bib package

Hi Polina,
I have not für every Question an answer, but for the second task try the entry with {Gust, Paolo van}. I don't know if it works :-).
Good luck
Andreas
