First, I am new to Lyx.
I downloaded an apa layout file from the web, placed it in the right
directory for layout files. Did Reconfigure just in case I had to. But
I cannot access apa layout when I open Documents/layouts. Anybody know
what's wrong? I've included the layout file.
Also, if anyone has a better way to do APA format stuff, please let me
know.
