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

In 2007 1. works as before though The mouse driven superscript is in the
Fonts group of the Home tab. Alt+0179 (on the numeric keypad) will also work if the character is included in the font. This incidentally is not the same as superscript 2. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "DeanH" wrote in message ... Several ways: 1.

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. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "DeanH" wrote in message ...

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.

And you can get "real" subs and supes for the rest of the numbers in
some fonts, in the Unicode range "Superscripts and Subscripts" beginning at 2070. n May 6, 5:53*am, DeanH wrote: 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.

When I enter Alt+0179, I get a superscript 3. Alt+0178 gives me the
superscript 2. "DeanH" wrote: Several ways: 1. Format the 2 as superscript, select the 2, Format, Font Superscript, or press Shft+Ctrl+= 2.

Sorry about that Jerry, as previously mentioned I accidently left the
selection on the superscript 3 and made the code note in the posting :-( DeanH "Jerry" wrote: When I enter Alt+0179, I get a superscript 3. Alt+0178 gives me the superscript 2.
