Numbered sections: why 0.1 and not 1 etc.?

[Pierfranco Minsenti]

Hi everybody,

I am a newcomer and I am using since a few days Lyx 1.5.4 for Mac and the
class report: why if I use numbered sections (without parts, chapters etc.:
just sections) the authomated numbers are 0.1, 0.2 etc? I would like to have
normal numbers like 1, 2 etc. not decimal numbers.
What can I do to have normal numbers? Is this a problem of the class report,
since if I use the class article I don't have this problem?
Thanks for your help.

This is because report classes use parts as highest level. When you don't need or have parts, the 
use an article calss instead. The UserGuide explains you more about this.
