How does one hyphenate a long word that appears in a citation, in the list of

not editable as normal text in LyX.
I assume you have the file where the reference is, yes? Add \- where you
want to allow a hyphen.

I thought of that. The reference is in a Bibtex database so yes, I could do
that. But it seems crude and awkwardâif I change a column width or font or font
size or number of columns or bibliographic style etc. then the added hyphen
will appear in the wrong place.

The \- just tells LaTeX that it is allowed to break the word at that
position; it does not force LaTeX to do so. You'll only get the hyphen
in the output if the word is at the end of the line and hyphenating is
required.
