But note that if you do this, you will be unable to refer to the caption
alone, as the entire paragraph (including the equation) will be considered
part of the caption. A workaround is to create a single-row, two-column
borderless table. Put the caption in the right cell (formatted just wide
enough to contain it) and the equation in the left, centered, with a left
indent to equal the width of the right cell. To facilitate entering
equations in this format, save a dummy equation-table as an AutoText entry.

Use a Center Tab to center your equation, use a Right Tab to right align

I would like to have each equation centered on a line, but have the
equation
number right-flushed.

How do I do that?
