Martin the \ followed by a space creates a space in this format.
So What you need is \cfoot{References\ Cited\ -\ thepage}
Putting it simply, if you want a space put in \space as above.
As Todd has said you need to handle the subtraction of 15 by the setcounter
method, though I will be pleasantly surprised if it works in this context.
Its hard to recommend a process unless on know which of the various
alternatives you are taking up for creating this file of references.

Re: NSF proposals
That did it! I think you and Samar have done it! thank you!
I use fancy in the menu, and then
ERT
\fancyhead{} %Clears header fields
\cfoot{Project Description - \thepage}
At the beginning of the references I use
ERT
\setcounter{page}{1}
\cfoot{References Cited - \thepage}
I can then cut the Refs off in Adobe Acrobat (I guess my next step is
to do it in ghostscript...?) Oh, well, it works!
Cheers,
Hank

What you want, is on the page you want to restart the page counting.
insert an ERT, on the page you want to be numbered 1, and in the ERT
put:
\setcounter{page}{1}

What you want, is on the page you want to restart the page counting.
insert an ERT, on the page you want to be numbered 1, and in the ERT put:

Assuming you are on Unix you may find like I did that xemacs/emacs bibtex-mode is very useful while creating your bibs. You may find it helpful to go to the lyx tutorial (Help->Tutorial) and read sections 3.6 and 5.2.5 ... not sure if you have to follow the whole tutorial up to that point for it to be useful though. (Help->Extended Features) -> (Navigate->Supplemental tools->Preping a bib...)seems SLIGHTLY more useful. The following may help, there are example bib files and list of other links. http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/BibTeX Sorry, if there is nothing specific here, I get the impression you need to start with some of the fundamentals, and btxdoc.dvi & Help->Extended Features are not that long. Note: Help->Extended Features indicates "Then, at the very end of your document, select Insert->Lists & TOC->BibTeX Reference." but you may do that where ever in your document you want to see your references listed, but in only one place in the document). -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter

(Note I use the XForms GUI, you may have to take a slightly different path
to the same items in the menus.)
Assuming you go to layout->document and set "Page style" to fancy.
If you want the same page numbering on all the pages, go to layout->Preamble
[XForms GUI] or layout->document->Preamble [QT GUI] and put the following in
your preamble:
\cfoot{C-\thepage}
if you want a different page numbering in different sections, then on the
first page of the section insert an "ERT", i.e., TeX box (click the button
with the Red TeX on the GUI)
and in that box put:
\cfoot{My Project section Description-\thepage}
I don't remember how to get rid of the line fancy header puts at the top of
the page, but I had to add one at the bottom, IIRC the following added to my
preamble did it:
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0.4pt}

Please explain, do you mean you can't get the bibs in a .bib file which is
separate from the document, or you need them to be printed on a separate
page, or you need every citation in your bib printed even if you do not
specifically reference it in your document?

Re: NSF proposals
1. I need to add descriptive page numbers (e.g., Project Description p.1
or C-1).
if you mean page numbers at the bottom like c-1 then a bit of ERT as follows
would do it:
\cfoot{\textbf{YourChoice\ -\ \thepage}}
this basically means page numbers come out at the center of the footer space
with something like YourChoice - 3 for page number 3 in section YourChoice.
You have to ask for package fancyhdr in this case.
2. I cannot separate my references cited (using BibTeX) from the document,
so I have to open it in Acrobat and delete, the body of the proposal, but
then I am stuck with screwy page numbers.
Cant work out what you mean here. Is it that you want the references to be
a separate document?
In that case you may want to open the sort of document you want and add in
ERT \:
\nocite{*}
That will print out everything in your bibtex file and whatever text you
have put into this document.
You will of course have to put in the Bibtex generated references in the
usual way.
Hope this help to sustain you in the world of Lyx and that you find its
worth it.

I cannot separate my references cited (using BibTeX) from the document, so I have to open it in Acrobat and delete, the body of the proposal, but then I am stuck with screwy page numbers.
