It works! Only a minor glitch: I was missing the "OpenOffice.Org Writer" entry in the View menu, so I added "auto" as a viewer in preferences for this format. I obtained an entry in the View menu but after choosing this entry a dialog popped out saying that it failed. However, after quitting and restarting LyX it worked. So it seems that "auto" is only recognized on startup and not immediately after adding an entry in preferences. -- Enrico
