It's vaguely possible that if you replaced a longtable with a table, it would work, but longtable does have some extra commands that reLyX wouldn't understand, and LyX wouldn't know it's supposed to be a longtable. Still, it might be better than nothing. You could try wvware's latex output - reLyX. I haven't used wv, but maybe it outputs regular tables instead of longtables. -Amir

That could well have to do with all the other stuff that gets put in. I would like at least wvCleanLatex to be clean enough to get through reLyX, but haven't managed so far. -Amir Martin -- Martin Vermeer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Helsinki University of Technology Department of Surveying P.O.
