[EP-tech] Re: Possible importing BibTeX bug in monograph



Adam,

As I mentioned in my previous email, I checked the exact code you 
suggested and it's fine (hey, don't get me wrong, I know you're having a 
hard time answering all our questions in such a limited time:) ). 
That's  why I'm curious wrt the reason I'm getting this error. If you 
take a closer look into my script's output (the warnings), maybe they 
tell you more then they tell me about resolving this issue :).

Moreover, it would be enlightening if someone tried importing the sample 
bibtex entry of my previous email in their installation and see if it 
imports it correctly (using the command line to see if they get the same 
warnings).

Thanks for helping!
