Default I need to convert per metre square as follows, 200m2

Graham, thanks for catching the code error (3 instead of 2), I have the 3
selected and forgot to change the selection :-(
I understand the difference between the symbol and superscripting the digit,
I tend to use the symbols instead of superscripting, they come across better
in the printed document.
All the best

Perhaps I should have added that the superscripted 2 character is ALT+0178
(ALT+0179 is a superscripted 3 character). Either way it is not quite the
same as a 2 with the superscript font attribute. Whichever you use it would
be better not to mix them in the same document if someone else may have to
edit it later.

Several ways:
1. Format the 2 as superscript, select the 2, Format, Font Superscript, or
press Shft+Ctrl+=
2. Add the 2 as a symbol, Insert, Symbol, (normal text), "superscript two"
is between the Plus/Minus and superscript 3 symbols, and has the code
Alt+0179.

The above is for 2003 and prior, for 2007 instructions may differ but
hopefully this will indicate the right direction.
Hope this helps

Hi. could someone please assist with the following.

I would like to know how I type R200m2 with the 2 after the m being the
small 2 as in per metre squared.
