Bad form to reply to my own message, but I should add that the status bar suggests that the coversion is happening with the file apparantly being converted to tex and then oolatex being executed to create the odt file, its just the converted file doesn't appear anywhere.
Yes, that is what is supposed to happen. But if you search the mailing list, you'll see that there are lots of problem with oolatex on Windows. I don't know what the status of that is. Some people have had success but it's often been a bit of work. What I'd suggest is that you try exporting to LaTeX and then running oolatex manually. That'll at least give you lots of error messages if something is going wrong.

I have just installed 1.5.2 on WINXPpro and trying to export my lyx doc as an OpenOffice doc file appears to do nothing.

Some older messages here suggest that with earlier version you needed to change the export extension to odt (in preferences) but that is correct in this latest version.

As I am very new to this, I suspect I am just doing something wrong. The doc I am trying to export is only 20 pages, but with many figures and cross references.

I would appreciate any help.

Many thanks,

Graham
