Allan,

Thanks for your email.

I tried 

\AtBeginDocument{\usepackage{babel}}

in the preferences dialogue, but my IEEE paper still wouldn't compile (LyX 
calls LaTeX but LaTeX just seems to hang on its 1st run and I have to kill it)

Excuse my ignorance but what was your reasoning behind suggesting using

\AtBeginDocument{\usepackage{babel}}

instead of

\usepackage{babel}

cheers
Nick
