LyX (LaTeX) uses its own bibliography format, BibTeX: http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~jacobsd/bib/formats/bibtex.html Converting your medline database to bibtex should be no problem. I heard that endnote can export bibtex. If not, other tools can (e.g. under Linux, there's the bibliography frontend pybliographic, which can deal both with medline and bibtex). There's a small guide on how to use BibTeX with LyX in Help->Customization, section 1.2 and here: http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/Examples/SimpleUseOfBibTeX HTH, Jürgen.
