I am currently working on citing multiple citations with page numbers and want to order the citations by their reference number similar to this link. I am currently using LaTex I found from this question to help me write \citetext{\citealp{ref2}; \citealp[pg.200]{ref1}}, however, it does not appear to put them in order. My current commands are:

\usepackage[square, numbers,sort&compress]{natbib}

\begin{document}
I would like to order these citations by reference number \citetext{\citealp{ref2}; \citealp[pg.200]{ref1}}.


\bibliographystyle{siam}
\bibliography{bibfile}


\end{document}

When I use \cite{ref2,ref1} the command correctly displays these citations in order as [1,2] but when I write them as I have it above, I get [2;1,pg.200]. Is it possible to automatically make them [1,pg.200;2]?

Thanks in advance

    Why do you not simply put ref1 first if you want it to appear first? Do you have a very long list of citations that you need to order? – Plergux Oct 23 '20 at 12:11
  • Yes, I have a more extensive bibliography which would make that rather difficult. – AW27 Oct 23 '20 at 12:31
  • Have you tried to apply the solution from the first post you mentioned unchanged? I.e. using only \cite ? From what I can see it looks like to me that should do what you want. – Plergux Oct 23 '20 at 14:03
  • That works without page numbers. I was hoping I could provide the reference with the page number next to it, then move to the next reference. – AW27 Oct 23 '20 at 14:21
  • Ah, I see. After some research it seems to me to be a major undertaking to implement this, or I'm just not seeing it. In any case, I must admit defeat. – Plergux Oct 23 '20 at 17:30
