It's easy, when you save it, you had the good extension (.bib). After, it will be correctly recognize. --> you create your new document in texmaker, file menu, save as, and here, as name, you put fo example 'biblio.bib". You can also create a text file, rename the extension (or directly save/create it as biblio.bib). After, it will be treat as a bibtex file by you favorite editor.

    I want to create an external bibliography using BibTex. I am using TexMaker for the text, but do not know how to save the text as an .bib-file. Does anybody know how to do so?

      Have you tried File -> Save As ?

      Save As, and add yourself the extension. However I would suggest using JabRef to create.bib files: you only have to fill forms, and it will detect syntax errors.

      You can copy a file bib from your friend, after then delete contain and insert your contain to instead. :)
