As already said, LyX (as a LaTeX GUI) is not the best choice in this regard. You might consider using Docutils (http://docutils.sf.net) which (in the SVN version and daily snapshot) include a reStructuredText -> ODT converter followed by a ODT->Word conversion with either Ooffice or Abiword. Just check if the feature-set matches your needs. Günter
