Hi, Nirmal, Yes. I did a lot of reading and found useful information. Now the only remaining task is for me to learn why it won't compile without errors. > If the text is entered in texth-within-math-mode (you can do a Ctrl-M > while you're in the math-mode to enter text-within-math-mode), then you > can just hit space and it'll show up as a space.. if you want a space > while in math-mode then try \, or \ followed immediately by a space.. they > put spaces with varying widths.. I think (but I'm not sure) that \, is the > space you want between two characters in math mode -- such as for > a,<space>b .. would be great if someone could confirm this... What I did, when in the right-side box, was to select the regular text mode from the text button menu on the math panel, then use ctrl-space to space the words. The LaTeX generated by this (as seen in the .lyx file) appears equivalent to a working example, but just will not compile. Yes, this is frustrating, especially when I'm against a deadline by my publisher for the book. Sigh. You folks are all terrific. I really appreciate the help. Rich -- Dr. Richard B.
