Vanishing periods in Serial titles

Post by NilsMS »

I am currently in the process of tweaking the citation format as I need it and encountered the following strange problem.

Books without serial title should look as follows:

T. Saile, Slawen in Niedersachsen (Neumünster 2007).

While those with serial title (the serial title is already abbreviated in the database) should look the following way:

T. Saile, Slawen in Niedersachsen. Göttinger Schr. Vor- u. Frühgesch. 30 (Neumünster 2007).

However, the following code:

a, t |~. ~j v (l d).

gives me this output:

T. Saile, Slawen in Niedersachsen. Göttinger Schr. Vor- u. Frühgesch 30 (Neumünster 2007).

The period at the end of the serial title has vanished. Is there an easy explanation or solution for this behaviour?

Every help is appreciated,

Nils

Please post such questions in the Bookends forum. This one is for exchanging formats.

In answer to your question, I need more information. Please send your database to tech support (support@sonnysoftware.com) and tell me which reference to look at for an example. We'll follow this up off-forum.
