Clearly you understood the essence of the question. For my immediate purposes that is very helpful, since I'm currently conserned with typesetting of non-executable text. Thank you. I would still like to know how to use that notational form in executable text, as well as to be able to change from one form to another globally through stylesheets. It is unfortunate that format and content are so tightly bound in the current implementation of Mathematica. It's certainly a challenge to create a general means of presenting mathematical expressions based on content. http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-MathML2-20031021/ -- "Philosophy is written in this grand book, The Universe. ... But the book cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language... in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, ...; without which wanders about in a dark labyrinth." The Lion of Gaul
