| 16320 | 2001-07-31 08:25:00 | How do you display say 1/7 or 5/14 as an integral fraction i.e with a diagional line through it and at a reduced size rather than as above or with a horizontal line like 1 - 7 in Word. Insert Symbol only provides for 1/3, 2/3, 1/8, 3/8, 5/8 and 7/8. Equation editor does not seem to be the go either. Cheers |

For the diagonal between them, place the cursor correctly, then Insert menu | Symbol | choose the Symbol font, and select the diagonal that's four rows below the number '4'. That may be close enough for what you want. |
