On this subject, I just discovered Word's Formula glossary (I have version 4.0a) doesn't include the symbols for "subset" and "subset or equal to". The reason, I suppose, is they are pretty hard to find: you type 2 keystrokes to get them (OPTION-n SHIFT-A and OPTION-n SHIFT-O, of course while in Symbol font). If someone in Microsoft reads this, perhaps they could correct this oversight, since most people are going to battle to find these 2 (commonly needed) symbols from the keyboard. (Who knows why they were mapped to a part of the alphabet not found by a simple keystroke...At least this isn't Microsoft's fault.) Philip Machanick philip@pescadero.stanford.edu
