Hi all,

I regularly write report and use a number of references. I use the ISO690
style and most of the time, all is well.

Very occasionally my bibliography will display a hyphen instead of the author.

Example
I have two sources. Both books with same Corporate Author (IPEM). Both
have Title, Year, City, Publisher and Standard Number completed (the default
fields)

I've inserted citations into text which give me (1) and (2).

My Bibliography is displayed as:

1.IPEM. Book Title. City : Publisher, Year. ISBN xxxxx
2.--. Book Title. City : Publisher, Year. ISBN xxxxx


Can anyone explain why I see the hyphen and not the author? It doesn't
always happen, and I've not figured out what the common factor that causes
this is.

Thank you

It happens when the author of the work is the same as the author of the
previous work in your bibliography.

Changing this behaviour will require editing of the style files and is not
all that straightforward.
