Automatic Subscripting and Equation Numbering -2 1 Year, 1 Month ago Karma: 2  
John,
We frequently use a greek leter follow by a Letter and a subscript letter, i.e. fPn, where f is the greek letter phi, P is the Letter and n is the subscript. Current if I type in |fPn and push the XLC name equation button, I would get the phi in greek followed by two subscripts. Other then naming the cell manually, is there a work around to make the subscipt of the last letter only?

Thanks
Brandon

Yes
1) name using XLC as you have already done.
2) delete the space before the "=" character to stop XLC automatically subscripting on a redraw.
3) Edit the cell and select the "P" character only goto Excel's main menu and select Format>Cells>Font and uncheck the subscript box. Press Ok and you are done.

I get quite a lot of questions like this brchi maybe you could read through other posts like Factorials
or Automatic Subscripting. It is in the help too below the flash tutorial.
Cheers
John

Hi Brandon:

I had posted the same question some time back to John Doyle. And in line with John Doyle's thinking I had proposed a workaround -- the image I had posted is not available on the Board, so I am going to repost it for reference.
