I'm starting a new gig (Yeah!), and promptly ran into a challenge. I'm<br>
using OpenOffice because in theory I can run that between the employer's<br>
MS Word and my own linux systems, and I've run into two places of<br>
ignorance.<br>
<br>
First - and probably more crucial for me right now - I need the ability to<br>
put a superscript and subscript one over the other (Its chemisty in case<br>
that helps). I haven't chased down how to do this as an inline graphic or<br>
math formula yet, but I'd really like to be able to just type it straight<br>
off as text. Ideas?? Clues? Tossed Bricks?<br>
<br>
Second - I'd like to install OpenOffice.org to a thumb drive such that I<br>
can use it on one of several XP and Vista machines available to me at<br>
work. This might not work if the IT people have properly locked up the<br>
machines, but I figure I might as well find out how to do it. (They have<br>
locked up the network so I cann't ssh home and convert stuff to a word<br>
format there. Clever bastards, but they have students to deal with.)<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
