If you need to put whizzy scientific equations into Office documents you need to do the following. (Office 2000 but probably other versions too)

1. Click where you want your equation

2. Click on the INSERT drop down menu

3. Click on OBJECT, and you will get the following window

4. Select MICROSOFT EQUATION 3.0

5. Click OK

You will now get an object on your page where you can put your equation, and a toolbar to insert special features

6. Enter your equation

If the Equation editor is not availanle from the objects list you will need to install it from the cd (It should be in the Office tools section)
