Type it in word and copy and paste it in the publisher file?
Under the font you will find superscript which you can use on the '2' or the '3'

Dave that ^ is the wrong symbol lol

Alt 0179 ³ = cubed
Alt 253 ² = square

Good list tho

I cant test it because i dont have publisher, but just do it on word then copy and past the symbol on to publisher, thisi may work.

i just said, wheni do it in word, it dings, then comes up with the save your document screen.

[webbo3]

are you holding down the Alt key when you type the numbers, press the Alt key and keep it presses whilst you type the number, then release the Alt key.
I just tried and found if you just press and release the Alt key and then type the numbers it bings becauce you have highlighted the word file on the top left of the word document.

they are only a normal 2 and 3 in superscript

Press ctrl and the = key to turn on superscript, type a number 2 or 3 and then do ctrl and = to turn superscript off again.

a ha, doign it your way doesn't work, but i found the superscript button and that works, thanks.
