Thanks Uwe. Fortunately or Unfortunately, I am aware of all the things you mention. - I've tried several times tex4ht (not good results, if at all) - I have never seen by-default installed the LyX -> .odt option - I never got a working .rtf - I've been testing eLyXer since its first days (thanks to Alexander again for this nice tool) - I (also?) believe the best way (currently) is to export (somehow) in html and then OOo/abiword -> M$-Word. All this is very far from what the statement implies (e.g. out-of-the-box import/export). Isn't, this statement, a bit/too much? Cheers, Nikos
