Hi,
I have a problem with the bibliography of my report.
I have Lyx on mac os X.
To type it, I have been using Bibdesk, it has been ordered in
alphabetic order and I don't like to begin a document with a 5 as
the first reference.
I can't either put the name and the year of the citation.
Has anyone been confronted to the problem before?
I'm not sure I understand what the problem is. It sounds like you are
getting numerical style references when you want author-date.
Are you using the "default (numerical)" citation style (in Document >
Settings > Bibliography)? To get author-date, you should probably use
Natbib, and then select Author-year as the natbib style. You will
then need to select a bibliography style from the BibTeX Bibliography
you've inserted for use with natbib, but which one depends on how you
want the bibliography to be sorted.
For details, see §6.5 of the User's Guide.
