Hi, I'm using LaTeX's report style with leqno option, i.e. equation numbers left-justified. What I need to know is how to make the following type of equation. (2.1) fl(x)=x(1+e) e < u where something is right-justified. \hfill doesn't work and I can't see how to do this. I can't use \raggedleft since I do want the main part of the equation centered. Any hints will be appreciated. Thanks'l

See pages 6 and 7 of the LaTeX manual for a full explanation. What I would do is: (2.1) fl(x)=x(1+e), where e < u which makes it obvious that the condition is part of the equation, or (2.1) fl(x)=x(1+e) where e < u ... which makes it obvious that the condition is not. -=- Clayton Elwell Arpa/CSNet: Elwell@Ohio-State.ARPA UUCP: ...!cbosgd!osu-eddie!elwell Voice: (614) 292-6546

If you want to line several things up to the right of the
equation list you can "simulate" eqnarray mode with
\begin{displaymath}
\begin{array}{rcll}
a & = & b & b < 0 \\
d & = & a + b & where foo > blat
\end{array}
\end{display}
This will place the "annotations" off to the right so they line up,
but they will not be flush right. Another thing to do is use the
"\qquad" spacing command which inserts a "quads" worth of space
(2 em's).
