I am having trouble creating a lyx pipe in Windows XP.  My goal is to use



I'm not aware that this is possible in Windows - I watch with interest.

A related problem occurs when I insert a BiBTeX Reference (Insert->Lists &
TOC->BiBTeX Reference). I get a message box saying 'Windows cannot open
this file: TeXFiles.sh ... What do you want to do? () Use the Web service to
find the appropriate program () Select the program from a list'. I can't
find an appropriate program for TeXFiles.sh. After the message box I get a
BibTeX-Qt dialog which allows me to add the *.bib file I created in JabRef
and to select a bibliography style.


This appears quite normally in XP but does not mess things in any way - just cancel it. (In ME it cancels instantly if my memory holds)

After that I can add references
(Insert->Citation Reference), so in a sense I don't need the lyx to JabRef
pipe,


Correct, I find it very easy once the dialog box is filled in with the database name and the bib style

but I should be able to get the pipe working and I should be able to
use the BibTex Generated Reference without getting a strange error message.


Once you have specified the bib file and style file once and then saved the document you will not be bothered by this again.

Thanks in advance for your help,
