Thanks.
It did help to come up with:
in the Preamble:
\newcommand\LMP[1]{#1}
In Settings->Local Layout:
Format 60
Style EDD
CopyStyle Date
LabelFont
Series Bold
Color Red
EndFont
LatexName renewcommand
LatexParam {\LMP}
LabelString "LMP:"
End
which does exactly what I want, and with the look I wanted.
