Hi Brian,

try Insert -> Field

EQ \s \up 6 (\f (,3))

Using Alt-F9 you can toggle between field view and "source code" for modifications (e.g. when you use something else than 12 point font size and need to change the parameter for \up). I then select the resulting 3bar symbol and use Tools -> Auto Correct Options to create an autocorrect code (like "3bar"). With that, each time I type 3bar, Word converts it to the symbol I generated. No LaTeX quality, but no equation editor required either.

Hope that helps.

Sven

I have heard that there are several ways to create a 3 with an over- bar symbol (as would be used for space group R -3 c, for example) in
Micro$oft Word, but none are convenient.  I know how to do this with
the equation editor. Can anyone contribute any better choices?
