NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi and welcome,
i opened a new topic for your question as it was unrelated to the other one and is more suited here in the LyX subforum.
Unfortunately i can't help you and we have to wait for a LyX expert.

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Re: Exporting odt-files from LyX
LyX puts it in a temp folder and deletes them on exit - you have to Save As within the odt program before closing LyX to keep it. Check the location of your temp folder in LyX Tools>Preferences>Paths>Temporary Directory, or watch the lower left corner of the LyX screen while it exports - it shows what it's doing including exactly what folder it puts the file in but that goes by fast though. You can also try View> ODT which will either open the file or show the folder.
Edit: actually, I just tested and can't find it either. I have a pdf and a tex file and a bunch of other files but no odt. I'd suggest reporting it as a bug on the LyX site.

Thanks Valkyrie for quick response,
I have check the temp folder all files are generated except .odt. When I am Trying to view>>Opendocument from lyx it prompt error msg, "File does not exists".

Re: Exporting odt-files from LyX
I have make the changes in Lyx2.0. Firstly install tex4ht then the following process applied....(Ref. bossanova, http://ubuntuforums.org)
Open tools-->preferences-->file formats
Create a new format: odt
GUI name: OpenDocument
Shortcut: whatever
Extension: odt
Viewer: oowriter (although I can't yet get the viewer and editor to work)
Editor: oowriter
Now go to tools-->preferences-->converters
create a new converter from LaTeX (plain) to OpenDocument
Converter: mk4ht oolatex $$i
Extra flag: originaldir,needaux
