Default MSword, how do I type/show 10 to the power of 4

I'm doing a maths course and am trying to provide course work & answers in a
word document for indices and fractions. I cant seem to find these functions
- I'm using Word 2003. Any takers? Kenny

To insert 10 to the power of 4, just type 104 and format the 4 as
superscript (via Format | Font, Font tab).

To create fractions, you can use an EQ field or the equation editor.
See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/CreateFraction.htm.

Hi Kenny

Type 104. Select the 4 and do Format Font. Tick the "Superscript" box and
click OK.

Hope this helps.

And a shortcut for Superscript is Ctrl+Shift+= (Ctrl+= for Subscript).

I was working on an Excel spreadsheet yesterday that had a couple of lines
of text at the bottom. There were all something like: X1 = Blah, blah, blah.
See such and such if this condition applies. (The 1 is supposed to be a
subscript number.)

Instead of everything being normal and the one being subscript, the file's
originator formatted the entire sentence as superscript with the exception
of the 1. I left it as it was. All I was supposed to do was to tweak the
size of the print so that it would fit on a single 11 x 17 sheet of paper -
and that's what I did. (Letting that sentence alone was not easy tho.)

Hi Suzanne,

interesting,
here and now Ctrl+Shift+= result in subscript.

Ctrl+= results in nothing but
increasing the paragraph's spacing before.

I wonder.

ok Suzanne

these are international issues.
I tested at first with a german keyboard layout.

After switching to US, ctrl ´ (german)
results in superscript.
Ctrl = (german) results in subscript.

No need to explore this further.

Given the various positions of non-alphanumeric characters on U.S. vs. U.K.
vs. European keyboards, it's not surprising there's some variation.

As I use a lot of sub- and superscripts, I've put the shortcuts for the
commands on the edit toolbar
