>>Subject: French decimal math comma
>>
>>Dear all,
>>
>>In french, the decimal part of a number is separated from the integer 
>>part with a comma. In order to have it automatically, I had to the preamble:
>>\usepackage[french]{babel}
>>\DecimalMathComma
>>
>>1) The \DecimalMathComma is not defined if I don't load babel. However, 
>>my document language is already set to french, thus I thought babel was 
>>already loaded. Am I wrong ?

Yes, but it is loaded after the preamble without options (that's why you can 
load it by yourself
withouts clash).
\AtBeginDocument{\DecimalMathComma} might work, I'm not sure.

>>2) Since this is the normal behavior in french, why the 
>>\DecimalMathComma is not set by default when the language of a document 
>>is set to french ?

See below.

>>3) Are there some alternative solutions for having automatically the 
>>comma instead of the dot in the printed text, even if I write a dot in 
>>the LyX document ?

The place to set french commands (at the expense of document portability) is 
the frenchb.cfg file,
it should works to set it there.
