 If it's lyx or latex documents you can just copy and paste. Lyx will work
 as is. Latex math you need to either paste into an existing math block or
 paste as normal text, then select the math parts and press Ctrl-M to
 create a math block of the text.

Yes, they are all lyx documents. 
My trick is to collect most of math questions in one file, so as to be able
to pick up what is needed, when preparing a new doc. 

A different solution  would be to store each math question or expression in
distinct lyx document. Then, desired items could be included into your doc
through the 'input' instruction.  But i have never tried.


Thank you

block of the text.

If it's openoffice it may be possible to export to latex first and then
possibly import it into lyx (don't know how well the math export works).

If it's word or pdf you are probably stuck with rewriting the equations

Often i have to pick up math questions from several previously made
documents to build up a new one (homework, test, other deliverables).

I would like to hear about your suggestions to effectively accomplish such
task. 


Thank you
