Chihiro, To enter x with a subscript i just type: x Ctrl _ i Ctrl space. Where _ is the underscore character above the minus sign on the keyboard. Ctrl space moves you out of the subscript box, or you can use the arrow key ->. There are many other box structures that are entered with the Ctrl character. For example powers can be entered by, for example, x Ctrl ^ 2 Ctrl space. Check out section 1.1.7 in The Book, although I notice they don't mention subscripts there. You can also look up SubscriptBox in the Help browser. If you do a lot with subscripts and run into problems you may want to check out the SubscriptSymbols package on MathSource at the WRI site.

Subscript is often used when writing textbook, so I tired with clicking palettes again and again ... Thank you. Chihiro Kuraya __________________________________________________ GANBARE! NIPPON!
