subequations in the group.

Thanks.
But this was exactly my point: In Math.lyx the section describes subequations, their labeling and their referencing. What you are doing is to reference the outer equation. But if you don't want to reference the subequations (as you do in your example file) why do you use subequations then?

It's possible we are talking about different things Uwe. Extracting the example from 19.3 in the maths manual and compiling it separately, the numbering in the pdf is (1), (1a), (1b), equation (1) being what you mean by the outer equation (I assume). In my example documents there is no outer equation. They are treated equally and so are numbered (1a) and (1b). And yet I would still like to be able to refer to them collectively as "the equations (1)". (I can imagine some discussion like: "The answer to this question is contained in the equations (1). By substituting from (1b) into (1a), ....")

The example documents do this, subnumbering the individual equations and yet providing the means of referring to the group. There are references of both kinds, to the individual equations as (1a), (1b), and to the pair of them together as (1).
