[Tex/LaTex] Alternative to bibentry (not biblatex)

bibentrybibtexnatbibtexniccenter

Basically I have the same issue as in here:

Suppress printing of only \bibentry references with natbib?

I want to be able to use the characteristics of bibentry (i.e., I want to print the full citation inside my document and at the same time I want to have a bibliography with all the elements of my .bib file (it's easier to just see the question I pointed above).

The thing is that the answer provided is using biblatex. I don't need much convincing to switch to it, but for several reasons (mainly "political") I have to use natbib.

Any suggestions?

Edit

I've recently tried the answer provided by Karl, but it doesn't seem to work while building the whole project in TeXnicCenter (MikTeX 2.9). Here is my code (it's the same as Karl's, but the References file is sepparate and has exactly the same content as Karl's example):

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{natbib}
\usepackage{bibentry}
\nobibliography*

\begin{document}

\section{Test}

This is a citation \citep{art1}

\section{Test}

This is a bibentry

\begin{enumerate}
\item \bibentry{book1}
\end{enumerate}

\nocite{*}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}
\bibliography{References}
\end{document}

I'm not sure to understand correctly your needs, but try the example below:

\documentclass{article}

\begin{filecontents}{examplebib.bib}
@article{art1,
author="First Last",
title="A fictitious journal article",
year=1900,
journal="Journal of nothingness",
volume=2,
pages="1-2"
}

@book{boo1,
author="Respectable Writer",
title="A silly book",
year=2000,
publisher="PublishCo",
address="Somewhere"
}
\end{filecontents}

\usepackage{natbib}
\usepackage{bibentry}
\nobibliography*

\begin{document}

\section{Test}

This is a citation \citep{art1}

\section{Test}

This is a bibentry

\begin{enumerate}
\item \bibentry{art1}
\end{enumerate}

\nocite{*}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}
\bibliography{examplebib}
\end{document}

Output:

[Tex/LaTex] How to suppress insertion of letter labels after year for references from the same year

Find the file apalike.bst in your TeX distribution (likely in a spot such as .../bibtex/bst/apalike, where ... is a root directory of the TeX distribution), make a copy of it and name the copy, say, my-apalike.bst. Open the new file in an editor of your choice and search for the function FUNCTION {output.year.check} (probably starting around line 120 of the file). In this function, locate the line:

    " (" year * extra.label * ")" *

Remove the substring extra.label *. I.e., the line should now read as follows:

      " (" year * ")" *

Save the file (either to your current working directory or in some directory that's searched by TeX's filename database operations, and update the TeX filename database if necessary) and be sure to use the instruction

\bibliographystyle{my-apalike}

from now on.

[Tex/LaTex] Suppress printing of only \bibentry references with natbib

As stated in the answer to the other question bibentry is not suitable for the task at hand (without modifications). If you want to give biblatex a try, it is easy to set it up for what you want to achieve.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\usepackage{csquotes} 
\usepackage[natbib,style=authoryear]{biblatex}


\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib} 
@article{nature, 
   author      =   {Rosa Rademakers and Manuela Neumann and Ian R. Mackenzie}, 
   title      =   {Advances in understanding the molecular basis of frontotemporal dementia - elongated title}, 
   journal      =   {Nature Reviews Neurology}, 
   volume      =   {8}, 
   year      =   {2012}, 
   pages      =   {423-434}, 
   doi         =   {10.1038/nrneurol.2012.117}} 
@article{fuente, 
   author      =   {D. de la Fuente and J.G. Castaño and M. Morcillo}, 
   title      =   {Long-term atmospheric corrosion of zinc}, 
   journal      =   {Corrosion Science}, 
   volume      =   {49}, 
   year      =   {2007}, 
   pages      =   {1420-1436},

   }

\defbibenvironment{keyrefs}
  {\begin{enumerate}}
  {\end{enumerate}}
  {\item}

\begin{document} 
Test \citet{nature}\addtocategory{keyreferences}{nature}

another test \cite{fuente} and \citep{Rocca2007a}

\printbibliography[env=keyrefs,category=keyreferences,title={Key References}]
\printbibliography[notcategory=keyreferences]
\end{document}

The key issue is to create a category for the key references. After that we can use the category and notcategory options to \printbibliography command to filter the references. Also the natbib option allows us to use standard natbib commands for citations.

Since you want the key references to be printed as an enumerate list, we can use the command \defbibenviornment to use enumerate as the wrapper environment for them, and use the env=... option to specify it.
