Hi,

How can I insert a % symbol in OpenOffice equation?

What does a "%" do in any equation?

It's used in openoffice formulas to indicate special characters (a bit like \ in LaTeX): for example, %mu and %sigma give Greek letters. A % on its own won't do anything. That's why you have to out it as "%" if you want to use it literally. -- JDL
