in my experience it will not work.
time is wasted on converting documents from lyx2word and visa versa. a lot
of time!
its a pain in the arse working in word, but so be it.
a lot about this issue is already written in the lyx wiki and in previous
threads on this mail list. do check it out!

Wrong. Tex4ht converts well to Oowriter. I've done it for a 54 pages article
with footnotes, a jurabib bibliography, tables and some custom macros. With

I successfully persuaded my adviser to install lyx. He does not know
how to insert a formula, but making small changes has been easy.
BTW, with the new windows installer (I mean the non-official one),
even your advisor can install lyx. :-)

Who are you kidding? Thesis/dissertation advisors and committees will mess
with both your work and your head. :-)

Hi all,
I am about to begin to write up my Phd-thesis and
would like to do this in lyx.
One thing that worries me is that the Profs who will
correct it are working in MsWord!
Is there an tested/validated way to convert lyx files
to .doc?
I have read something about lyx->latex->rtf->doc .

Working at a document with people using word processors other than lyx
is currently impossible, since using latex as common format does not work

if those latex files have been produced by kword or opensoffice).
