While running bibtex (with latex) I encountered the following error message: "you've exceeded global-string-size 300 for entry bauer75--warning". I understand that this is because the note field in the entry for bauer75 exceeded 300 characters. How does one increase the value of this constant global-string-size so as to be able to have longer notes? Thanx in advance to responses. -- Mukesh Dalal Voice: (201)-878-1763 Dept. of Computer Sc.

Unfortunately you have to recompile BibTeX with a larger constant. We have encountered this with people who put annotations in their bib files. One way around this problem that allows unlimited length annotations is to out "\input{bauer85.ann}" in the field and have the notes in the separate file. Or you could use tib instead. Ken
