Francesco,
Hi I'm trying to use Lyx to write an article and I need to introduce/define some
acronyms. How am I supposed to do it? Do I need to write latex code within the

Paul,
I think you've got two possible options. The first is to define your own
BibTeX style file using makebst, which is run as follows
tex makebst
then answer the relevant questions. I'm not 100% positive, but I think that
one of these may allow you to specify uppercase names in the list of
