Hi all, a question for the many happy users of Taco's bibmodule: I'm in the process of splitting a larger project into several components. What I have is: transl.tex --> main project file environment.tex --> environment for all components products.tex --> list of components component1.tex component2.tex . . . Index, TOC etc. seem to be working very well, but I can't get the bibliographic references right when compiling. Where should the call to bibmodule reside, and how can I run bibtex on such a project? Thanks Thomas
Hi Thomas, The beta has some code to deal with use of multiple bibliographies withing projects/products, the current one in the distribution does not. The beta is on my website, linked from : http://wiki.contextgarden.net/User::Taco/Bib The mailing list thread about 'multiple bibs' is here: http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20051003.000309.57881f41.en.html Biggest problem: I am not sure what the desired/correct functionality would be. If I understand your case correctly (with many components of a single product, and a unified bibliography at the end of the full product), then you probably should do the setupbibtex only in the product file (and creating products.bbl); and execute only "\usepublications[products]" in each component. But that's guesswork, not prescription, and not a reliable advice. If can give me and exact description of your wishes, then I can create a new beta with your desires in mind. Cheers, Taco Thomas A.

... and you friend me forever be! Taco (Just wanted to say sorry about the mess I made from that sentence)
Taco, thanks a lot! Your bibtex module is an amazing one-man-show! Yes, this seems to work: having \setupbibtex[database=bibliography] in the products.tex file and a line \usepublications[products] in the components. I needed several runs of ConTeXt to get rid of many ?? when typesetting single components, but now it appears to work. More about this book project soon. (I'm negotiating with my publisher, Blackwell. They want it "typeset professionally," and I'm trying to convince them that typesetting doesn't get any more professional than that...).
