A "Block" refers to elements belonging together, i.e. the name(s) of the author(s) form a block. A period is a "." The problem with Your example is that You would like to have a space after the authors block and a period after the title block. makebst cannot cope with several block separators, so You have to edit the .bst file manually. I could take a look on the .bst file You have created if You mail it to me. BTW, if You send a P(rivate)M(ail) to me with the .bst file attached, please list all wishes the style should fulfill. And you can use German, too. Kind regards Kimmo
