Do the substitution with the InputForm, i.e., Subscript[\[Alpha], 23], then select the cells and use the menu command Cell | Convert To | TraditionalForm Select the TraditionalForm menu item even if there is already a check next to it.

I want to change the notebook so each occurrence has an evaluated form of "Subscript[\ [Alpha], 23]". When I run the Edit>>Find command in the front-end, the unevaluated form is replaced. The "Replace with:" box is a plain text control so I cannot paste the evaluated form. Is it possible to make this replacement? Thanks in advance. Roger Williams Franklin Laboratory
