And the attribute HoldAll (or HoldFirst) doesn't work in your version? (the HoldForm can be seen, because I converted output to InputForm before copy/paste). It is invisible in the Notebook when using Standard- or TraditionalForm step[Integrate[x^2, x]] --> HoldForm[x^3/3 = x^3/3] SetAttributes[step, HoldAll] step[Integrate[x^2, x]] --> HoldForm[Integrate[x^2, x] = x^3/3] Peter
