Import of tab-separated values into a table of the right size can be done via mouse-drop. The csv2lyx script creates also the LyX table for you - see http://tomi.gulino.org/OpenSource/csv2lyx/index.html GM

I know i can export as bibtex, but how to import into a table? I don't know tellico, but a general approach is to export the database to a spreadsheet, either directly (if supported) or by exporting a text file and then importing the text file into the spreadsheet. Then create a table of the appropriate dimensions in the LyX document and follow the tips on the wiki (http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/CopyTablesFromSpreadsheets) to copy the data from the spreadsheet to the LyX doc. /Paul
