No, they can also be added in the other tabs, though the procedure is less evident. If you choose 'Options -> Customize entry types', you can choose an entry type on the left (e.g. 'article'). On the right side the required and optional fields appear. There you can choose from the dropdown list or give a field that is not selectable from the dropdown list (in your case 'language'). Clicking on 'Add' appends the field name to the list. Afterwards you can move it around using the arrow keys. Note that it is also possible to add entry types that not yet exist (e.g. 'myarticle') by typing it into the input field at the bottom left corner and clicking on 'Add'. > that I have to choose all entrances and in New Field value I insert > english and save the settings. I didn't get that bit, sorry. Do you mean adding a value to the new field? > How can I make this the default setting for all my bib files? 'Options -> Preferences' and then the buttons 'Import preferences' and 'Export preferences' in the bottom left corner. If you have suggestions on how to improve the documentation, please give feedback to me via private mail, also in German if you like (domwass[at]web[dot]de). Regards, Dominik.-
