Default How do I type an 'overline' or 'overbar'?

For example, in writing mathematical notation, to designate an average
figure, one places a horizontal bar over the variable name. The same
notation
is used in linguistics to indicate a phrase at a particular level of
analysis. I have need of both of these, but how do I get Word to do it?

Thanks for your help,
