Thanks. However, now when I run BibTeX the debugger reports the 
following in the backtrace window:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-function (quote TeX-run-command))
  (quote TeX-run-command)("BibTeX" "bibtex --min-crossrefs=100" "test")
  TeX-command("BibTeX" TeX-master-file nil)
  TeX-command-master(nil)
  call-interactively(TeX-command-master)

I can't really tell what Emacs is complaining about here -- despite the 
fact that it seems to be saying TeX-run-command is invalid, it's finding 
the correct command line string. Is the problem that TeX-command-master 
is nil?

I have a second issue as well, but I seem to be making progress with it 
on my own so I'll wait before posting it.

Thanks again for your help!
