Pdflatex and bibtex

Just had a small problem getting a citation to work in my dissertation. I am using pdflatex to render my dissertation into pdf format and bibtex to handle the references.
The trick is to not use the file extension of the tex file. If your file was called file.tex (yay imagination) you would do
pdflatex file bibtex file pdflatex file pdflatex file
Running pdflatex multiple times is necessary to make sure everything is included in the final document.
