Excellent! I even tried DELTA but not Delta....
?plotmath says
'Alpha' - 'Omega' uppercase Greek symbols
How could that be made clearer?
(Note it carefully says Greek *symbols* not *character*: they are not the
same thing.)
Now, how do I go about pasting that with some text that I have in various other
variables?
Use substitute? E.g.
substitute(expression(foo*Delta), list(foo=3))
(Some people prefer bquote, but that is just a wrapper for substitute in
R.)

Hi
I am running an R script that creates 100s of graphs, and I need to use
the greek CAPITAL letter delta in the mtext() function.
I got as far as expression(delta) but this gives me the lowercase
version.
Can anyone help? I'm using R 2.7 on Windows XP
