superscript and subscript characters

Is there a way, using Microsoft Word, to print superscript and subscript
characters vertically aligned with each other? For example, in music theory,
chords are notated using both types of characters such as

6
I
4

where the 6 should be a superscript, and the 4 should be a subscript, of I,
and both should appear on the same line, vertically aligned. Is this
possible?

Yes, but you'd need to use a field code to do it. Take a look at the EQ
field using the \A() switch. {EQ \A(6,4)} puts the 6 directly over the 4.
You'd probably want to make the field 2 points smaller than the chord
letter. Because these are tedious, you'd probably want to create a list of
AutoCorrect or AutoText entries to automatically convert them. For example,
once you get the I64 looking the way you want, you might in fact call it i64
so that it automatically converts into the form you want when you type those
characters (unless, of course, you live in Virginia, in which case I64 is
the interstate that runs from Charlottesville to Virginia Beach g).

You might try the Microsoft Equation Editor - it has the ability to put both
a sub- and superscript as you describe
