Does anybody know of a tool for Windows that works in a fashion similar to MathType on the macintosh. A windows application that would let me create equations on screen and copy and paste them into Word for Windows or something like that. I know that Word for Windows can do equations but if you have ever tried to use it for a period of time you would think you had stepped back in time to the days of eqn in Unix or jumped into TeX territory. Simple mortals want to write equations, not become code masters! Any hints or leads or "products in development" would be interesting. Post or mail. tj

Wow... I got MANY responses VERY VERY quickly on this so I want to try to avoid wasted bandwidth on the net! MathType (which I have used and IS nice on the Mac) is now available for Windows 3. It saves equations in Encapsulated PostScript form and Windows Metafile format. Available from: Design Science (213)433-0685 I hope this helps others!!! Many thanks to all that replied! tj

Since when does hDc First Apps come with an Equation Editor?
