Sorry list, I inadvertently sent this direct to John.

Thanks John for this, its not quite working as I'd like, so I'll explain it 
with examples.

* Case 1 - original setup

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Source =

The remaining 'other place'
deaths include over 150 described as 'psychiatric hospitals', 'psychiatric 
hospitals (security)' or
'psychiatric unit' (cite:0113).

Pdf =

The remaining
’other place’ deaths include over 150 described as ’psychiatric hospitals’, 
’psychiatric hospitals
(security)’ or ’psychiatric unit’ (WILSON , 2015).
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


* Case 2 - brackets removed round citation

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Source =

The remaining 'other place'
deaths include over 150 described as 'psychiatric hospitals', 'psychiatric 
hospitals (security)' or
'psychiatric unit' cite:0113.

Pdf =

The remaining
’other place’ deaths include over 150 described as ’psychiatric hospitals’, 
’psychiatric hospitals
(security)’ or ’psychiatric unit’ WILSON , 2015.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

* Case 3 - with John's coding

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Source =

The remaining 'other place'
deaths include over 150 described as 'psychiatric hospitals', 'psychiatric 
hospitals (security)' or
'psychiatric unit' (cite:0113).

And with your coding and built as pdf =

The remaining
’other place’ deaths include over 150 described as ’psychiatric hospitals’, 
’psychiatric hospitals
(security)’ or ’psychiatric unit’ ().
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


* Case 4 - with John's coding

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Source =

The remaining 'other place'
deaths include over 150 described as 'psychiatric hospitals', 'psychiatric 
hospitals (security)' or
'psychiatric unit' cite:0113.

And with your coding and built as pdf =

The remaining
’other place’ deaths include over 150 described as ’psychiatric hospitals’, 
’psychiatric hospitals
(security)’ or ’psychiatric unit’ .
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


- Case 1 is the start point and as it currently is.
- Case 2 is an interim stage, with the circular brackets round the
  citation removed. When its exported the sentence looks ugly with out
  any differentiation between the text and the citation.
- Case 3 is with John's coding snippet being applied and the whole
  exported, and it leaves the circular brackets round the citation
  behind but no citation.
- Case 4 is with John's coding snippet applied after the circular
  brackets have been removed, and is nirvana! :)

But it would be a mammoth undertaking going through and removing all the
circular brackets round the citations, and there's 381 references in the
bibliography, so is it possible for your code snippet to temporarily
remove the circular brackets as part of its building the tex file
please?

Thanks John, I do appreciate it

Sharon.
