You already have it on your computer:
Copy the file cv.cls you find in a subfolder of LyX's install directory somewhere to MiKTeX's 
instal folder and then start the program MiKTeX Options and refresh there the filename database. 
Then reconfigure LyX. (When you have installed LyX on Windows using this installer:

http://developer.berlios.de/projects/lyxwininstall/
this is should be done automatically.)

When you are on Linux use texhash to refresh LaTeX's filename database.

Besides LyX's cv-class there are much better cv-classes available:

- europecv (following exactly the guidelines given by the European Union,
  required for some job applies in the EU)
  example:
  
ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/europecv/templates/cv_template_en.pdf
- moderncv (in my opinion the best looking CV)
  example:
  
ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/moderncv/examples/jdoe_casual.pdf
- ecv
  example:
  
ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ecv/template/CV-template_en.pdf

 This just stuck out.

It's very often a matter of taste, and compromise.

Easy example: Consider preventing an orphan (i.e. moving the last line to the 
next page) means that the paragraphs on the next page (2) don't fit on that 
page anymore. Another page break must be inserted, which could mean either a 
widow on the new page (3) or an underfull page on the previous page (2) 
(because two lines are missing). Also it could expand your book by two pages, 
if a new chapter  always starts at the right page.

If you have a publisher who insists both on preventing widows and orphans and 
two have always full pages (always the same number of lines), the only 
possibility os often to rework the text to make the paragraphs shorter or 
longer.

Harvard Style Referencing.

[Gayle Tan]

Hi,

I'm a new lyx user. I'm thinking of using lyx to write my dissertation
in finance.
My university uses the harvard style with some modifications, i
downloaded harvard.bst and i tried using it. i got the following
error.

Undefined Control Sequence
\harvarditem
   [Chan et~al.]{Chan, et~al.}{1990}{Chan:1990qy}


Can anyone help


Thanks.

Re: Harvard Style Referencing.

[Richard Heck]

You also need to put
\usepackage{harvard.sty}
into the preamble (DocumentSettingsLaTeX Preamble). Alternatively, and
perhaps better, enable Natbib under DocumentSettingsBibliography.

Headers when using \includepdf ?

[curtis osterhoudt]

  Hi, all, 

 I have found the easiest way to include formatted source code into a LyX 
document is to use the \includepdf  command. It works great, except that I see 
no way to get the master document's page numbers (or any header) on those 
pages. I've seen that a few other people have had this problem, but I can find 
no solutions online or in pdfpages' documentation. Does anyone here have a 
suggestion?

perhaps better, enable Natbib under Document>Settings>Bibliography.

Also, Do i need both boxes for the references to appear.?
lyx seems to give me an error if only the 2nd box is in the document?


the input above gives me this:
How do i remove the first line after the bibliography.?

Unfortunately, harvard.sty causes latex to crash if you use the memoir

Headers when using \includepdf ?

[curtis osterhoudt]

  Hi, all, 

 I have found the easiest way to include formatted source code into a LyX 
document is to use the \includepdf  command. It works great, except that I see 
no way to get the master document's page numbers (or any header) on those 
pages. I've seen that a few other people have had this problem, but I can find 
no solutions online or in pdfpages' documentation. Does anyone here have a 
suggestion?

 Regards, 
 C.O.

Re: Headers when using \includepdf ? -- possibly solved

[curtis osterhoudt]

This is a recurring pattern with me. For some reason, sending a message to the 
lyx users' group after a couple of hours of looking online seems to make me 
look in just the right place to find the answer. I'm sorry to bother people. 
The solution is to use pdfpages' "pagecommand= " option, plus some 
tweaking. 

 Thanks for the subconscious prompting!
