This is precisely what I was saying.  Rather than have everything hidden in a 
file as MS Word does, simply put the needed graphics files in a folder shared 
with you lyx document.  No special file formats are needed.  I agree, I hate MS 
Word.

Goodness gracious. Just put everything in a folder and send that, which is
precisely what MS Word does without you knowing it.

Pardon me for jumping in here. I use LyX primarily because it is NOT like MS 
Word or
other WYSIWYG word processors. In which environment I can't keep track of what 
I'm
doing without some feature I don't want automatically messing with what I'm 
doing.

Well that and the way it keeps me from accidentally fat fingering extra spaces 
between
words and a few other such things so that I can concentrate on what I'm writing
instead of how it looks.

Please please please don't make LyX more like Word. Please!
