Thanks for the reply. I appreciate the help.
I see now that my example was too simplistic but I'm still having the
same problem. I'm actually trying to do what is in 5.2.4 and my
layout file is msuthesis.layout and is save in C:\Program Files
(x86)\LyX 1.6.3\Resources\layouts
I took the book.layout and changed the \Declare line to include the
msuthesis.cls and to report the name to LyX as msuthesis. I also
added the Preamble as described in 5.2.3. I wasn't sure that I needed
that with a class so I tried it with and without the Preable. I still
get the same errors I described earlier. Also, I've checked to make
sure MikTeX has msuthesis.cls by compiling the example document from
the command line. It created the .ps file correctly. My layout file
is below.
I'm sorry the errors are not very informative. I should fix that.
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[msuthesis,book]{msuthesis}
Try taking out what is in the square brackets, thus:
# \DeclareLaTeXClass{msuthesis}
and then make sure you save it as msuthesis.layout. I think this is your
problem now.

Preamble
I'd use AddToPreamble here. Otherwise, you overwrite the preamble.
\usepackage{msuthesis}
EndPreamble
Otherwise, it looks as if it should be fine. What I'm attaching works
for me, though I do get errors about not having the msuthesis file.
