    Displaying Equations on a Form

    Hi All,

    I need to display some equations on a form in VB (I will print the
    result in a text box beside the equation).

    The equations will in some cases be quite complicated and include
    squares, fractions, powers, square roots, summations, greek characters
    etc.

    The question is: what is the best way to display these equations on
    the form in a format of equal quality to that produced by the equation
    editor in MS Word (say). In other words I want to lay out the equation
    properly with all the right symbols etc, not just type the equation as
    you would in the VB code and display it as a single line of
    text.

    Do I need to position each character on the form separately to
    build up the equation ? Do I need to generate it in another program and
    display it as a graphic or is there a much easier and better way ?????

    Thanks, any suggestions would be appreciated.
