Is it just me, or is OpenOffice terrible about styles? One day when mad at LyX, I briefly tried writing a 2nd edition of a book in OpenOffice (the first edition had been in MSWord from 1999). My styles didn't copy over, then when I manually put in styles they intermittently vanished. OO is great for a 2 page letter, but it's a horror movie when writing a book. After that foray into OO, I got really serious about learning to program LaTeX environments and commands, and their counterparts in LyX.
