Ok, one strange thing that has happened to me a little bit too often lately was that when quoting some literature, instead of a reference like [1] (using natbib), i only get a question mark, like [? ]. This is really strange and I don't know why it happens. Deleting the reference and recreating it sometimes helps. Other times, it is helpful to change the quote to quote 2 things at the same time, which then usually works. I feel more like a computer-mythologist.
I thought that JabRef together with Lyx would make it nearly impossible to get the quotes wrong. What is happening? What information should I provide so you will know what is happening? Niko
