I am building a Latex biblography data base. I want to know whether anybody can tell me how to keep comments in the database while not use the comments in the paper. For example, @BOOK{kn:Tar83, Author = "R.Tarjan", title = " Data strusture ", Date = "1983"} If I want to put the comment (QA 76.8 I230) in the database and I don't want the biblography produced in my paper contains (QA 76.8 I230), what should I do? Thanks in advance. return email address: s442215@nexus.yorku.ca (or yscs5102@yorkvm1.bitnet)

I would suggest looking the LaTeX book, p. 144: "BibTeX ignores any field that is not required or optional, so you can include any fields you want in a bib file entry. It's a good idea to put all relevant information about a reference in its bib file entry--even though information that may never appear in the bibliography. For example, if you want to keep an abstract of a file in a computer file, put it in an abstract field the paper's bib file entry." -dh --- Don Hosek TeX, LaTeX, and Metafont Consulting and dhosek@ymir.claremont.edu production work.
