I am using Mathematica 2.2.3 on windows 3.1. I am trying to copy an output cell into an input cell. The output is something like this: 2 2 + 3 x - x The problem is the power 2 of the last term. When I copy the output cell and paste it into an input cell, the power 2 appears in front of the rest of the terms! Surprisingly, if I change the format of the output cell into an input cell using the pull down menu: ( Format->Cell->Input ) only its font is changed into bold! Is it supposed to be like this? How can I fix this without manually editing the cell. PS: I have a few years of experience with Mathematica on NeXT, and I have been doing these quite often without a problem. Why different versions of Mathematica on different machines do not behave the same? ******************************************* Ramin R.
