Correct solution is to use \*matter commands (available in book class
only). Something like this (\commands in LaTeX mode as ERT):
\frontmatter % should be the very first command in the document
... Introductory text, abstract, table of contents, list of
figures, etc.
(numbered by small roman numbers)
\mainmatter
... body of the book
(numbered by arabic numbers)
\appendix
... appendices
(chapters numbered with letters)
\backmatter
... the bibliography and index
You can use any of these commands or none.
Happy LyXing!
