Kevin, You need to be using a style sheet that includes the style, NumberedEquation (eg Classic ). Though you can add this to your own version of Default. Proceed as follows: - give the cell containing the equation a tag, say eqnX, (menu>Find>Add/Remove CellTags). Then when inserting the automatic numbering object (menu>Input>Create Automatic Numbering Object) - choose Numbered Equation for the upper right (Counter Type) field - click the radio button "The first cell with the tag" - click eqnX in the bottom field - click OK -- Allan --------------------- Allan Hayes Mathematica Training and Consulting Leicester UK www.haystack.demon.co.uk hay at haystack.demon.co.uk Voice: +44 (0)116 271 4198 Fax: +44 (0)870 164 0565 "Kevin J.
