''latex makebst''
The script will ask you a lot of questions about your preferences (e.g. full author names, order, numbered or literal references, etc). In the end of the execution, there will be a question like that:
''Batch job written to file 'something.drv'
Shall I now run this batch job?''
select 'y' and a bibtex style file called 'something.bst' will be generated (of course, 'something' is a user-defined filename).
In lyx, use this bst file WITHOUT the .bst extension, in the same way you use natbib (Insert>Lists and Toc>Bibtex references...), but with the full path.
in lyx 1.2.0, this works no longer, and you must move the .bst file to a recognisable latex directory (usually /usr/share/texmf/bibtex/bst/local in debian; create yourself the 'local' directory) and run 'texhash'. Then you need only the name of the bst file in lyx.

Hello everybody.
I'm using LyX LyX 1.1.6 fix 4 in Gnu/Linux, Debian distr.
I was suggested to use Natbib. And indeed it seems to work fine when I
cite a reference. For the list of references I was suggested to read
"texdoc natbib" for fixing it. After some time, just now I have finished
to read it. Unfortunately I have not found anything I can try to do
succefully. May you give me further assistance?
The problem is:
I need to have:
Gilbert, C.S. 1992. A duration nodel of automobile ownership.
Transportation Research 26, pp 97-114.
(from the sample list of references I am provided with).
(maybe a ',' could be better between 'research' and '26' ? I do not
know.The sample list of references I have do not say so. But it seems
strange to me. Furthermore I do not know if the number has to be
included or not, from the sample I have.)
Instead I have:
Charles Simon Gilbert. A duration nodel of automobile ownership.
Transportation Research, 26(3):97-114, 1992.
(I introduced the Number beside the Volume in order to let you know hoe
natbit treat it now).
I look forward to hear from you
Bye
Carlo
