When you use LyX, all works happens in a temp directory. LyX copies the LyX file there, _and all files referenced from it_. This works for graphichs and subdocuments, anything that LyX supports natively. It does not work for latex code you write yourself, as LyX makes no attempt at understanding your ERT or your preamble. So, do you reference other files from ERT? Or from the preamble? That could be the reason. Helge Hafting
