Belated thanks to you both. The ERT "\scriptsize" ... "\normalsize" around the table was good, and I combined it with the rotated table float, and got just what I needed.

Thanks a lot!

Hi all,

I have moderately wide table that I would like to place on a page of my
LyX document in landscape format. I have been able to do this, although
note that it comes out wrong in the DVI viewer, but appears not bad in
the pdflatex output.

The problem is that the text is a little too large, and even with the
landscape orientation, my table is too big for the page.

How can I shrink down the size of the text used in the table?

  See attached file.

Alternatively, how can I make the table's caption show in landscape
format as well, rather than above the rotated figure?

  No idea here.

I don't know latex commands, so if I must use ERT for this, please
specify what it is that must do. Any tips would be much appreciated.

Cheers
JP
