Paul,
It turns out that the problem is not simply between clicking and opening.
The recent files list, which appears when one clicks on _F_ile, has some entries in the Unix style (C:/LyX/etc) and some in the Windows style (C:\LyX\etc). If I use the former then I can export, the Windows style fails.

Are there known problems with Export? I find that I cannot export to ascii or latex.What platform? There's a bit of an adventure with exporting on Windows, depending on how you opened the file (file menu v. double-clicking the file icon).

Paul,
Thanks, you have put your finger on the problem. If I open a file I can export. With clicking in the Windows Explorer I cannot.
The workaround appears to be "NEVER enter LyX by clicking". I've removed the file association
I am using Windows XP with Lyx 1.3.5.
Thanks,
Colin W.
