Here is the error message I got in the debugging window when openning work1.lyx file:
Buffer::Buffer()
Assigning to buffer 0
Running 'C:/applications/lyx/share/lyx/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx -t221 "C:/temp/work1.lyx"'
On the Lyx GUI, it said: ERROR! An error occured while running the conversion script.
Is that a bug ? BTW, work1.lyx is a good lyx file, in the sense that it is converted from a good lyx file on Unix (converted to DOS just by changing the end-of-line character).

If this is still a problem, try the following. Open a DOS window in the LyX bin directory, and type lyx -dbg 5 at the command prompt. It should open the LyX GUI. Now try importing your LaTeX file and (without closing the LyX window) switch back to the DOS window and see what messages you got relating to the import operation. Hopefully, if a script blew up, you'll find out which one (and maybe something about why) there.
BTW, I agree that the %~p0 in reLyx.bat looks a bit goofy by Windows standards, but it works on my (XP) system.
