Sorry I can't offer any solution, but I have another flavor of this problem. I run into particular trouble when citing software packages and other computer-related stuff (data files, whatever). With a corporate author (SPSS Inc.), I end up with the record sorted by the corportion's last name (Inc. in this case) -- which makes finding the right citation a bit like mind reading. -dan (dohan@uclink.Berkeley.EDU)

Other solutions have already been suggested, but on the Mac (if I remember correctly) you may circumvent this kind of problem by typing a "option"-space between SPSS and Inc. this way it'll be treated as one word. You run into the same kind of problems with composite names, like Olle van Morell, if you want to keep van Morell together and sort on van you use option-space. *** Olle *** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- E-mail - Olle.Morell@astro.uu.se Snail Mail - Astronomical Observatory, Box 515, 751 20 Uppsala, Sweden
