Just in case someone else has the same problem as I had, here is the
solution for adding the prefatory sections to the table of contents.
In ERT add the following to the beginning of the section
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{ABSTRACT}
The above adds the abstract (in uppercase) to my table of contents.
I tracked this down in Herbert's Tips and Tricks page (except he has a typo
for the addcontentsline).
