 Even more. If my computations are correct, the patch went in
 post-beta2. Something around r36786 should be fine. But since you're
 on Win Vista, you'll probably need to wait for the beta3 binaries.

 Thinking about that a bot more, I am asking myself if everything needed
 comes shipped with LyX or is anything else needed to use the spreadsheet
 import feature?

You need Gnumeric. See
http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/SpreadsheetExternalInset
http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/CopyTablesFromSpreadsheets


 Working on WinVista.

 Another question which might be good to know in advance: How does LyX or the
 spreadsheet reporter know which part of the spreadsheet should be imported
 into the document? Just asking out of the mist - without the possibility to
 check myself while waiting for new beta versions.

See the example in the link above. As far as I understand, it takes
non-empty cells. The way I intend to use the feature is one (simple)
table per spreadsheet.

 Thx - as always.

LyX 2.0: spreadsheet

[Jannick Asmus]

Opening the lyx 2.0file (downloaded from 
http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/SpreadsheetExternalInset) with LyX 2.0 beta 
1, LyX prompts the following error: lyx file not readable. Shouldn't 
the file be readable - or is an upgrade to beta2 needed here? The latter 
idea comes to my mind since there is no item Gnumericspreadsheet in 
the drop down list in the external material menu.
