Hi!  I'm using your tutorial, and so far I'm finding it pretty useful,
except:

Section 3.4, Labels and Cross-References.

1st off, you tell us to use a "<reference> on page <page>" cross
reference. But you forget to tell us two things: 1, that this cross
reference will simply omit "on page <page> in the cross reference is on
the same page as the label. And 2nd, in 3.4.2 you tell us to insert this
into the sentence "....Section [Cross-Reference], which can be found on
page." Like so.

This yields, at best, "...Section 2 on page X, which can be found on page."

As such, I've wasted an inappropriate amount of time on this section
trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. You may want to fix it.


Which LyX version are you using ?

In the current version of the Tutorial, I read:
<cite>
View your document as DVI, and you will see that LaTeX has been even cleverer than that. It refers to “Section 2” and depending how much text you have between the start of Section 2 and this cross-reference you may see “on this page”, “on the previous page” or “on page n” (whereas n is the page number).
</cite>

You are however right about the crossref procedure insertion, which should be changed to:

<cite>
If you want to know more about this document, then see Section.

Now — with the cursor after the word “Section” — choose Insert->Cross 
Reference...
