Hello Liviu,
thanks for the advice, seems like I'll have to wait until lyx manages the export to odf. I tried latex2rtf too but it had problems with exporting images. I bypassed the problem by exporting the whole document to html and then opening it with Ooo or Word. The output looks quite neat actually, there were only minor issues with sections, subsections etc. The formatting is not perfect, but I only needed an editable version for my thesis advisor since he hasn't discovered the qualities of LyX yet ;).

There are lots of issues here, but they have nothing to do with LyX. Export always invokes external tools, except for export to LaTeX, plain text, or DocBook (which doesn't always work, anyway). I myself have no problem exporting to RTF, ODT, or almost anything else, but that's probably because I did a lot of the work to make these things work, and so, obviously, they work on my system. To a large extent, what's needed here is to tweak the command lines options to whatever external program is being used. It may well be, for example, that latex2rtf is expecting Latin 1 encoding, and you're trying to feed it UTF-8; or some such thing; and there are lots of issues involving graphics formats. So play around, and read the man pages for the various external tools.

Hello,
 I'm trying to export my LyX document to OpenDocument but LyX does not
produce output. The document is written in Slovakian language and in the
 cp1250 encoding. I tried removing all the ERT from the document but it
didn't help. I'm running LyX 1.5.5-2 on WinXP. Exporting to other document types (PDF, DVI, PS) works just fine. Can anyone give me an advice please?

On Linux I never managed---yet---to export anything to OpenDocument.
On Windows, I read on the list recently, it is even buggier. Are you
using their latest "release", tex4ht-20080510_p2222? Have you tried
exporting to .rtf, via latex2rtf? Search the Wiki for more info on the
latter.

Liviu
