Citations mess up when inserting multiple sources
My set up:
Mac 10.6.6 - Openoffice 3.2.1 - Zotero 2.1b5 - Openoffice Plugin 3.1b1
I'm trying to cite using the American Sociological Association style (one of the default styles in Zotero). When I select from the source list more than 3 papers everything messes up. Please see image below.

Any suggestion?
Thanks a lot
PS Zotero 2.1b7 doesn't seem to solve the problem

have you tried this with a completely empty document? If not, please do.
In any case, Frank will probably need to take a look.
thank you very much for your quick reply! Really appreciate your precious help. Yes, I tried with an empty document and I have same mess.
Many thanks again.
will a downgrade to some 2.1 beta make me continue working on my stuff? What do you advice?
Many thanks.
Edit: also, it's likely possible to temporarily adjust the style not to do this - while this will disable some disambiguation functionality, there's a good chance you're not using that anyway, so there would be no cost for you.
thanks for the advices. Any link you can post where I can learn more about disabling disambiguation functionality in a style?
Cheers,
nik
