Hi Jeff,
I thought I had created something like a 'authoretallimit' for \cite keys, but I am not completely certain. I am on the road right now so I won't have a chance to look at this until next week.
Best wishes, Taco
Would you have some time now to look at this issue? I will copy-paste what I explained earlier below: My a-key to use with the \cite command and my bib database doesn't seem to work when I have more than two authors/editors. Here is my data: \startpublication[n=40,t=editedbook,k=Burton-RobertsEtAl2000,a={{Burton-Roberts},{Carr},{Docherty}},y=2000] \editor[]{Noël}[N.]{}{Burton-Roberts} \editor[]{Philip}[P.]{}{Carr} \editor[]{Gerard}[G.]{}{Docherty} \title{Phonological knowledge. Conceptual and empirical issues} \pubname{Oxford University Press} \city{New York/Oxford} \pages{352} \pubyear{2000} \stoppublication My setup is simple, I use all the defaults. Meaning, I don't have any \setupcite specification in my environment file. So, when I use the following command: \cite{Burton-RobertsEtAl2000} I get the following output: (2000) If I just remove one name in the a key, like this: \startpublication[n=40,t=editedbook,k=Burton-RobertsEtAl2000,a={{Burton-Roberts},{Carr}},y=2000] \editor[]{Noël}[N.]{}{Burton-Roberts} \editor[]{Philip}[P.]{}{Carr} \editor[]{Gerard}[G.]{}{Docherty} \title{Phonological knowledge. Conceptual and empirical issues} \pubname{Oxford University Press} \city{New York/Oxford} \pages{352} \pubyear{2000} \stoppublication With the above \cite command I get the expected: Roberts et Carr (2000) Where can I setup this? I see nothing regarding that in the BibTeX manual. There's a lot covering the publication list at the end, but I have no problems there, with as many authors (or editors, like in this case) I want. I get only this behaviour with the \cite command. Have I missed something? I'm running mkii version 2008.11.10. Thanks for any help! Jeff
