All the theorems and proofs Hal> appear as drt. Is there a way to resolve this problem? This is unfortunately a known problem, due to the fact that LyX does not handle natively theorem environments. I see two solutions: 1/ import the file by hand with reLyX by passing the following options (assuming the environments names are theorem, lemma and proof): reLyX -r theorem,lemma,proof myfile.tex You may want to put these names in your personal syntax file (see the reLyX man page for details). 2/ Create your own layout file that contains descriptions of the theorems you use. This is more complicated (see Customization.lyx). This is what the ams classes do. Hope this helps. JMarc
