Dana,

How about this...

MatrixForm[
  Table[HoldForm[(2*Pi*rp*cp)/8] /. {rp -> r, cp -> c}, {r, 0, 7}, {c, 0,
7}]

The one way you can change something in a Hold is to make a substitution.

Hello.  Could someone point me in the right direction on the use of
Hold?  I cannot seem to find a solution.

In this simple table, I would like to first substitute the values of r &
c, but then not reduce the equation.

MatrixForm[Table[HoldForm[(2*Pi*r*c)/8], {r, 0, 7}, {c, 0, 7}]]


Here, I get a table of all "2 Pi r c / 8"

This is close, but I would like the r's and c's to have the appropriate
values.

I would like "2 Pi 0 0 / 8",  "2 Pi 0 1 / 8"....etc

I have gone thru all the Hold functions without much luck.
I could not find anything in the achieves either.

InputForm[Names["Hold*"]]

{"Hold", "HoldAll", "HoldAllComplete", "HoldComplete", "Holdfirst",
"HoldFirst", "HoldForm", "HoldPattern", "HoldRest"}

Thank you very much for your help.
