I feel compelled to point out that it is entirely possible that the Wiki entry is now woefully out of date. It was written (by me) over a year and a half ago and I have not attempted to keep up with it. It worked with an older version of latex2rtf and WinXP LyX 1.5.x. I haven't even upgraded to LyX 1.6.x yet because I have a couple big projects going that I don't want to muddle with. Frankly, my new method for dealing with getting stuff from LyX to M$Word (arm twisted, screaming) is to export the plain text (ps2ascii option so that refs are formatted) and then finger-paint the whole thing. Since I only have to do it once, I just accept the fact that one day of work will be wasted on this shenanigan. All this said, I am excited to try out LyX 1.6.x and eLyxer as an alternative.
