If you are trying to put a footnote in the caption of a float, you can do so as follows: a) In the caption, insert (in ERT) \footnotemark[n] where n is the number of the footnote. b) In the body of the document (outside the float), insert (in ERT) \footnotetext[n]{the text of the footnote}, using of course the same number n. /Paul
