I wasn't sure if this would happen or not since I don't have llncs.cls installed on my computer. Looking at the LyX llncs.layout the \DeclareLaTeXClass doesn't look right to me. Maybe, there is someone that knows more about this llncs class. Anyways, to fix the issue you have two options: 1) Modify the llncs.layout in: C:\Program Files\LyX15\Resources\layouts. 2) Create your own layout in: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\lyx15\layouts. This is just a matter of coping the file from 1) and renaming it. Either way I think the solution is the same. You need to change the \DeclareLaTeXClass to something like this: \DeclareLaTeXClass[llncs]{article (Springer LNCS)} This tells the layout file to explicitly use the llncs.cls file. You can change 'article (Springer LNCS)' to any name you want in this case. Once you do this, be sure to "Reconfigure" and restart LyX so that it will find this new/modified .layout file. Cheers, /Bob
