Hi,

I have a fairly simple question which I cannot solve. I want to assign
a symbolic expression to a greek letter and then use this in a
subsequent integral. So,
********************************
\[Lambda] -> [
\!\(\*SuperscriptBox["2",
RowBox[{"[",
FractionBox[
RowBox[{"-", "2"}], "\[Nu]"], "]"}]]\) Gamma[1/\[Nu]]/
   Gamma[3/\[Nu]]]^(-1/2)

Integrate[\[Nu] E[-0.5   Abs[z/ \[Lambda]]^\[Nu]]/(\[Lambda] 2^(1 +
     1/\[Nu]) Gamma[1/\[Nu]]), z]
**********************************

How can I get this to work?

Thanks
