<DIV>Do you know whether TexLive 2006 has been released yet? Thanks.</DIV>

<DIV>> did you wipe out existing .aux files before</DIV>
<DIV>> rerunning? that guarantees a clean slate.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Yes I had been doing that as part of a script</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>> I did get the condensed form [1-3], but it has brackets.</DIV>
<DIV>> </DIV>
<DIV>> I got the same result with</DIV>
<DIV>> </DIV>
<DIV>> \DeclareOption{natbib}{%</DIV>
<DIV>> \PassOptionsToPackage{numbers,sort&compress,round}{natbib}}</DIV>
<DIV>> </DIV>
<DIV>> So it didn't work.</DIV>
<DIV>> </DIV>
<DIV>> it may still not work, but worth trying.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The problem turned out to be similar to the .aux file - I was using an</DIV>
<DIV>old pnas.sty. The direct call works now from inside pnas.sty!</DIV>
<DIV>That is, pnas.sty contains (besides comments):</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>\renewcommand\@biblabel[1]{#1.}</DIV>
<DIV>\usepackage[numbers,sort&compress,round]{natbib}</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>and that does the job. Sorry for the confusion but thanks for the</DIV>
<DIV>help.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>> i noticed that a new version of natbib was</DIV>
<DIV>> announced for ctan this morning, by the way.</DIV>
<DIV>> cheers. -- bb</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks, I switched to that.</DIV>
