Insert, Object, Microsoft Equation, click on Fractions and Radical templates
on the toolbar to create the vertical fraction.

I want to just use Word and need to know how to type a fraction vertically -

math book - with the division bar going horizontally and the other operation
signs being in proper proportion?
