Are bibentry and subfile incompatible? [! LaTeX Error: Cannot be used in preamble.]
I am trying to construct a report document that consists of a series of documents that can also be compiled individually. In these subfile documents I have been using bibentry{} from the bibentry package to allow me to print a full citation in text.
Compiling the subfile documents individually works fine, and if I comment out the "bibentry" line in the subfile the main document is fine, but compiling the main file with the bibentry in the subfile fails and I receive the error
[! LaTeX Error: Cannot be used in preamble.]
Any advice would be welcomed. I'm not sure where to start with my troubleshooting.
Thanks.
The following files provide a minimal working example:
File Name: MainDocument.tex
documentclass{report}
usepackage[margin=0.5in]{geometry}
%For inclusion of subfiles
usepackage{subfiles}
%Path to the directory containing: "MainDocument.tex", "SubfileDocument.tex", and "Bibliography.bib"
newcommand{Troubleshooting}{Path to Troubleshooting Directory/MWE_SubfilesWithBibEntries/}
%%Bibliography
%% %Allows display of a full bib entry using the command bibentry{citationkey}
usepackage{bibentry}
nobibliography*
newcommand{Bibliography}{Bibliography.bib}
