Hi Herbert,

Here is the problem. My advisor doesn't want to use Lyx. He is used
to latex and will not switch. I love Lyx, Been using it for a couple of
years and I think it is the best. So I so all my work using Lyx and then
I export it to latex, send it over to my advisor. He then makes changes,
deletes stuff, ...  and sends the latex back to me. Then I have to reimport
the latex back into lyx so I can keep working. This happens very often,
so having some long procedure for reimporting latex into lyx is just not
an option. The thesis has lots of pictures that get screwed up when
reimporting, so I would have to spend half an hour going through the
lyx document fixing them. Cut and pasting would require the same
amount of effort.
Thanks for the reply,

-Mario
