I am still a little puzzled what the original problem was. But you can
even skip the use of ERT (in the second step I mentioned) and just
insert the (R) via Insert > Special Character > Symbol...


The original problem was that I didn't know how to do what you mention
in the preceding paragraph. One question remains: Will what you
reveal in the preceding paragraph also make the (R) smaller and raise
it to superscript? If so, I'll document it.


Indeed, it does make it smaller (script-size) ans raise it, i.e. set it 
in superscript.

Yes, you can solve the error by using textsuperscript. However, entering 
math mode seems superfluous then. And outside of math mode, you can just 
use the LyX functionality to achieve the same result as suggested below.

How to superscript within a date environment

Hi all,

On my book, I used the date environment to write "A

I'm sure most of you know this already, but for anyone who doesn't,
this is how it's done.
