Thanks Todd, The preceding Google search turned up this document: http://web.mat.bham.ac.uk/R.W.Kaye/latex/align/align.htm That document had an example, at least on a LaTeX level, of exactly what I wanted. I used that to create the following ultra simple LaTeX file, which lines up left, equalsign, right, and explanation: ================================================= \documentclass[12pt]{amsbook} \newcommand{\cn}[1]{\texttt{\char92 #1}} \begin{document} \begin{align*} x&=5y+3z+221a+43621&&\qquad\text{hellox}\\ 436x+227y+488z+221& = a&&\qquad\text{Steve was here}\\ a&=b&&\qquad\text{boingo} \end{align*} \end{document} ================================================= OK, so I have it solved on a LaTeX level, but now I have to put it into the LyX level in such a way that my equations and explanations show up reasonably in LyX without the use of ERT. Thanks for the lead! SteveT Steve Litt Author: Universal Troubleshooting Process books and courseware http://www.troubleshooters.com/
