Please detail a little bit what you mean. The Bibliography table is generated from a database, so that you can find the entries from the document in the bibliography database. Thank you for your comments, the development of import and exports filters is a priority for the bibliographic project. see http://bibliographic.openoffice.org/ The are two options available for export the bibliographic database. You can open the database in a spreadsheet and save it in the formats available there. There is also a a sample program that reads the bibliographic database and outputs it in text. It can be found at http://udk.openoffice.org/python/python-bridge.html. Although you may have to do a bit of programming to get the output you want. There is also http://www.hj-gym.dk/~hj/writer2latex/ which will output all the bibliographic references in a document in bibtex format. You have two options when creating a bibliography; one is using the bibliography database, one is using those entries embedded into the text. (the from document content item)... Although I prefer to use the database, I only want to send one file around, so I am required to keep the references in the document. Unfortunately, the citations I have are rather numerous (and growing), so I would like to be able to export them to a database from within the document. Why not... Description: allow the export of embedded biblio fields to a bibliography database. This is one of the enhancements on the list requirements list for the bibliographic project. Providing a function that does export of embedded biblio fields to a bibliography database is exactly what is required. I should have mentioned this. But as all bibliographic improvements are scheduled for 'OOo 2 later' I was trying help the user with a work around for his problem. Perhaps this request should be made duplicate 4260 I hope Issue 24813 is realized soon. No effort, just do the patch of including 3 files. It includes the BIBTEX bibliography export. I tested the recent version, works fine for me. This Issue requires more information ('needmoreinfo'), but has not been updated within the last year. Please re-test with one of the latest versions of OOo - the problem(s) may have already been addressed. Either use the recent stable version: http://download.openoffice.org/index.html or consider trying the new OOo 3 BETA (still in testing): http://download.openoffice.org/3.0beta/ Please report back the outcome so this Issue may be closed or progressed as necessary - otherwise it may be Resolved as Invalid in the future.
