I am the not quote happy owner of Mathematica Teacher's Edition [it doesn't work on Snow Leopard] and I do now see a future need to write reports / books using Mathematica - though of course I would then have to purchase a new version like Mathematica Home Edition at =A3195. I do know that all of the Mathematica documentation is written in Mathematica itself. But nowhere in this documentation do I see how to enter ordinary text or chapter titles in a Mathematica notebook. I have an MSc degree and teach in the Danish 3-year Sixth Form College for the 16-19-year-olds. After the summer vacation next year I am to take an extra BSc degree in Physics and Astronomy and this is where I will need the ability to write reports in Mathematica, including text, formulas and graphics. So I am even considering to wait with the purchase of a new Mathematica - after all the I've got version 5 from 2003, the present version is 7 and version 8 might have come then. And - I don't even see anything particularly about the issue in Stephen Wolfram's "The Mathematica Book 5th Edition". With 1,500 pages. Only a few hints. -- Per Erik R=F8nne http://www.RQNNE.dk Errare humanum est, sed in errore perseverare turpe
