I'm trying to format an article class document for submission as an assignment 
which requires a running header, 1 inch margins, double spaces, etc... under 
APA format. 

Headings style is set to default, should I change it? I'd like to have a short 
title at the top middle, and my name at one edge...

I'm using Lyz and Zotero to handle my bibliography (fyi, seems to work), and 
I'm using the natbib option in Document Settings, and the "apalike2" style on 
the right click bibliography setting. Should I use "apa" style? It works too, 
and I'm not sure which one is best. Also, will I have problems using the natbib 
setting? According to 
http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/apacite/apacite.pdf
apacite may be the best implementation to date, but it's incompatible with 
natbib, and I think part of my problem is that I have very long abstracts, 
which are basically my notes on the works, and include %'s >'s /'s and ()'s.  I 
erased the %'s but it still didn't work, and my notes heavily rely on the other 
symbols for diagrams and formulas...

To get rid of the huge gutter I had to unclick default margins and give it 1 
inch margins. I'm not sure what the other defaults are, so I said 1mm for head 
sep, and 1cm for head hight and 1cm for foot skip (please correct these if 
wrong, I'm not sure what they do...)

My preamble in the document settings reads: "


p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }

\usepackage{indentfirst}
%\rhead{\textsc{Financial Services Operations Management} ~~~~~ \thepage}"
The first line indents the first paragraph in section (which is usually not 
indented)
The commented code was an non-working attempt to create a running header. I 
really need a running header.

How do I center the level 1 heading? (I might not need to, but knowing would be 
great)

How do I number and label tables I made in Lyx? (or figures)? Can I insert a 
reference in the label?

Also, I need to insert diagrams that look like 
this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Porter_Value_Chain.png
My options: Latex 

I need to answer these questions pretty soon, so anyone's help, as 
comprehensive as possible, would be greatly appreciated, and note I don't know 
much about LaTeX, so I'd like to stay above the hood if possible, though adding 
verbatim lines to the preamble is certainly ok.

Thanks!!!

Aaron
