Thanks Hans, I am really sorry but I still do not get any entry printed (I followed your explanation as well as p. 25 of mkiv-publications.pdf)

\usebtxdataset[example][./mkiv-publications.bib]

\definebtxrendering[dataset=example,method=dataset]

\starttext
\showbtxdatasetfields[example]
some text
\placebtxrendering[example]
\stoptext

Could you just give a minimal example?
And, if possible, a way to sort by date...

Once again, my apologies for taking your time with that.

Best,
F.

Hi everyone, I really have difficulties with the bibliograpy system.
Sorry about that. I would like to print the whole bibliography so I
followed mkiv-publications.pdf and ended up with the file:

\usebtxdataset[example][./mkiv-publications.bib]

\definebtxrendering
   [example]
   [dataset=example,
    method=local,
    alternative=apa]

\starttext

\showbtxdatasetfields[example]
\placebtxrendering
   [example]
   [criterium=all]

\stoptext

I get the list but not the bibliography itself.

What is wrong with my file? Is there also a way to sort the entries by date?

The criterium is used for cited entries, and text/all then means for the whole document. In your case you wan the data set (no refs in the text):

\placebtxrendering
  [example]
  [method=dataset]

This axis is one of the new things as using criterium for that is messy.

Hans
