You'll need to cobble--but then save your cobbled version as an equation or
an autocorrect entry for future use. Start a new equation, then type the
following inside the equation container:
{underscore}n{spacebar}C{underscore}r{spacebar}
This will give you nCr (where n & r are subscripted). It will also give you
an empty box before the n, which you can ignore (and if you can make it not
show at all... let me know how, because I haven't discovered a method yet).
Of course, this is all much easier to do in Word without the equation
editor... unless, of course, you need additional things that only the
equation editor can do.
You might find this resource useful, since Word 2007's equation editor seems
to "speak" the UTN28 Plain Text Math language:

I haven't found any support in the new Equation Editor for properly
formatting Permutations (nPr) or Combinations (nCr). Are they here
somewhere, or do I have to cobble something together? Their display would
format the n and r elements in subscript, one before and one after the P
or C.
