Hi Katrin, My guess is you want something like this. http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/150314/change-table-caption-numbering
You will probably need to create the tables using latex. I am unsure if Lyx has a specific way of doing what you want. My guess is that you want to renew the thetable command.
