Hi Peter, It's important to make sure that you are using the numbered styles for your table of contents (e.g section, subsection). If you are using unnumbered styles (e.g section* , subsection*; note the asterisk) they will appear in your document map but not in your table of contents.

Might I be permitted a supplementary? Now that all the various bits are numbered, I notice that all the Sections number sequentially regardless of their location within Parts.  So I get: Part I   Section 1   Section 2 Part II   Section 3   Section 4   Section 5 Part III   Section 6

I can do it with ERT is there a LyX or other more elegant way? ERT way adds following \setcounter{section}{0} after subsequent section headers.  I guess you could redefine \part in latex preamble or put into a module even and use it as a custom inset? \makeatletter
