I've tested this file. The problem appears to be that the math insets
inside the tabular cells are output delimited with \[ \] (i.e.
math-display). Toggling the status of these equations back to inline so
they are output as \( \) solves the problem.
How did you create the file? When I create a table from scratch, and
insert math (C-m) in a table cell, it's typeset inline by default.
Changing to display-style does result in the errors.
You can even insert greek letters in the tabular cells: you open the math
inset (C-m) and then e.g. type \Omega for ohms.
The problem is the keyboard shortcut (M-m g S-o) does not work. If there
is no math inset (but inside the text inset of the tabular cell), the
keyboard shortcuts all fail. If I open a math inset inside the tabular
cell, the \Omega,\omega shortcuts fail for some reason, but all the others
work (for \alpha, \beta, ...). Similarily, inside a tabular cell but
without a math inset, typing "M-m u" (sum) (or selecting this from the
math panel) does not creat a new inset like it does outside the tabular.
This works in a math inset inside the cell.
Hope this clarifies things.
Lior.
