How to modify the swp-pro.ini file so that BibTeX works correctly
Version: 2.5 - Scientific WorkPlace & Scientific Word
If you have installed SWP or SW to run mostly from the CD/ROM, you may experience
problems when you try to create citations for a BibTeX bibliography. This is
because the pointers to the drive containing the BibTeX bibliography file are
incorrect. You can solve the problem easily by modifying the swp-pro.ini file.
Follow these steps:
-
Close SWP or SW.
-
Use an ASCII editor (such as Notepad) to open the file called swp-pro.iniin
the swp25 directory on your hard drive.
-
Scroll through the file to find the [Bibliography]
section.
-
Find the line that reads BibTEXdir = drive:\swp25\bibtex where drive is the letter designating
the drive to which BibTeX is supposed to point. For installations designed to
run mostly from the CD/ROM, the drive letter is probably D.
-
Change the drive letter to the letter designating the hard drive containing
the swp25directory, probably c.
-
Save the file and exit the ASCII editor.
-
Check that the swp25\bibtex directory exists.
-
Move or copy the BibTeX bibliography file that you created into that
directory.
-
Start SWP or SW.
-
Try to create the citation again.
Now that the pointers are correct, you should be able to create the citation
without any problems.
