Taco,
thanks for the response. Over the weekend I found a solution to my problem:
Instead of handling punctuation within the \insertarttitle{}{}{} command
I changed the BibTeX style file (cont-no.bst) to add the periods to those title entries
that need it with the command add.period$. And those titles that end in "?"
or "!" are properly handled by add.period$.
Ernesto
