Can I set it up to only display the Name field?
Insert->URL... uses the url.sty package, with which I'm not familiar.
The way I do it is as follows:
1. In the preamble, add \usepackage{hyperref} (and, of course, install
the hyperref package if you don't already have it).
2. In the document, type \href{mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Name} either with
everything in ERT or with everything except My Name in ERT (so two ERT
insets, the first one ending with an opening brace and the second
containing just a closing brace). I prefer the latter, since it leaves
My Name accessible for easy editing, spell checking etc., but either
approach should work.

Yes, that is what I had done as well. But this makes me think that the
URL as supported by LyX is useless. Not just because of the e-mail, but
cross references as well.
I want to have arbitrary links in my document. So for example, I might
have somewhere in my document 'see the section on blah', and blah would
be linked to that section. When I use Label & Reference, it kinda
works, but inserts a number at the reference. I want the text to be the
link. I can do this using the hyperref module.
So am I not understanding something?
