Acknowledgements and Abstract in report class??

[number9]

I am writing a thesis in Lyx... I am finished with the thesis (I hope)
but I must add an
acknowledgement page at the beginning right after the title page and an
abstract page
at the very end.

I am using the report (textcomp) class to write it, and can not figure
out how to do this.
Both the ack and the abstract just need to be plain text types of pages
(nothing fancy),
less the title words Acknowledgement and Abstract in large type bold
(like the size of a
chapter heading for instace).

Anyone have any ideas or prebuilt files for this?? I would normally just
do it in
a seperate document, but according to the graduate school those pages
must be numbered
also.

Thanks.

Bob
