[comp.text.tex] Bibtex and AT&T

knoedlse@Informatik.TU-Muenchen.DE (Rainer Knoedlseder) (04/17/91)

Hi,

I have troubles with bibtex using an entry like

@MANUAL{DDG89,
   title =  "Block and Character Driver Developers Guide",
   organization =   "AT&T",
   year        = 1989,
   edition     = "2.",
}

with the orgnisation AT&T. (Errors like >unexpected tabs,...<

Has anybody out there an idea how to write AT&T in bibtex???

Thanks a lot

Sorry to send this on the net but I can't mail to "Informatik.TU-Muenchen.DE"

organization =   "AT\&T" works fine with my bibtex version
(BibTeX, C Version 0.99c )

Hello

First let me thank you for your replies telling me to write 

         AT\&T or  AT$&$T.

But I had to notice that this was not the solution.

Now I found a very ticky sollution

@MANUAL{ATT89,
    title =  "Block and Character Driver Developers Guide",
>>> key = {ATT89}  <<<
    organization =   "AT\&T",
    year        = 1989,
    edition     = "2.",
 }

without the key-entry, bibtex tries to generate his label from AT\&T which causes
big problems.


Waiting for the next TeX-problems
