I have a Word document that I am trying to insert a drawing dimension and a
+/- (over/under) tolerance. I can use superscript and subscript to get the
tolerances in the correct vertical position, but horizonatlly one follows the
other - I want to get the second underneath the first.
Thank you.

You could do it with an Equation (set it up once, and when you need to
do it again with different numbers, Show Field Codes and just replace
the numbers).

If this is Word 2003 or earlier, look in Word's Help for "Field codes: Eq
(Equation) field" and look at the \f (fraction) and \a (array) switches
(depending on whether or not you want a line between the two numbers). For
some examples of "fractions," see
