Jane,
        Still no luck.
        I tried your suggestion, but when I tried to View->PDF Lyx came up with 
an
error box saying dvipspost failed.
        I then tried an slocate dvipspost which came up blank implying that I 
don't
have a dvipspost converter?
        I've also looked through the Wiki page again but couldn't see anything 
that
was helpfull to this problem.  I think  the Wiki page was the one that I
originally used for its installation instructions.

Thanks again

Roger
