I tried that too. I don't get the "BasicProviderlmpl::getScript: no 
script!" Error. And I can start LilyPond to creat new music snippets. 
But it is not possible to reopen the already existing music snippets 
which I expected. See below an explanation for this.

May be your problem is that script cannot be called. Check the 
installation of the script. Open the Dialog "Tools --> Macros --> 
Organize Macros --> OpenOffice.org Basic" and check whether the macro is 
still there. You can also try to run the macro using this dialog.


Now why OOoLilyPond cannot be used in .doc files:

OOoLilyPond stores the LilyPond code as additional attribute in the odt 
file. When unziping and the odt file and opening content.xml you can see 
the code for the OOoLilyPond Image:

<style:style style:name="gr1" style:family="graphic">
<style:graphic-properties 
OOoLilyPondArgs="default16§AsCharacter§NoWrap§c' d' e'" 
draw:stroke="none" svg:stroke-width="0in" svg:stroke-color="#000000" 
draw:marker-start="" draw:marker-start-width="0.1181in" 
draw:marker-start-center="false" draw:marker-end="" 
draw:marker-end-width="0.1181in" draw:marker-end-center="false" 
draw:fill="none" draw:fill-color="#99ccff"

draw:textarea-vertical-align="middle" fo:padding-top="0.0492in" 
fo:padding-bottom="0.0492in" fo:padding-left="0.0984in" 
fo:padding-right="0.0984in" draw:shadow="hidden" 
draw:shadow-offset-x="0.1181in" draw:shadow-offset-y="0.1181in" 
draw:shadow-color="#808080" draw:color-mode="standard" 
draw:luminance="0%" draw:contrast="0%" draw:gamma="100%" draw:red="0%" 
draw:green="0%" draw:blue="0%" fo:clip="rect(0in 0in 0in 0in)" 
draw:image-opacity="100%" style:mirror="none" fo:margin-top="0in" 
fo:margin-bottom="0in" style:run-through="foreground" style:wrap="none" 
style:vertical-pos="from-top" style:horizontal-pos="from-left" 
style:horizontal-rel="paragraph"/>
</style:style>

The lilypond code ist stored in the additional graphic-property 
OOoLilyPondArgs="default16§AsCharacter§NoWrap§c' d' e'"


I assume that this property is lost when converting to the .doc format 
and back again to .odt. I think it is not easy to find a clean way to 
store the lilypond code such that it remains correct when converting to 
.doc.

I will one have a closer look at this issue, but this does not have 
priority for the development of OOoLilyPond.
