I found out how to solve it: in vancouver.bst (which is in my case in home/wolfgang/texlive/2012/texmf-dist/bibtex/bst/) change nameptr #6 to nameptr #2 and numname #6 to numname #2 I saved this changed vancouver.bst to vancouver2etal.bst in order not to interfere with the original file and added this to document>settings bibliography style>default style WHICH DID NOT WORK however, if I changed vancouver2etal.bst to vancouver.bst (by saving the original vancouver.bst preliminary as vancouverOrig.bst) IT WORKED namely, only maximally 2 authors in the bibliography, if more: et al after the second one My question: why was vancouver2etal in bibliography style>default style not recognized? I did a reconfigure before. Wolfgang
