Question As a newbie, I have a very simple problem in OOMath: How do you write a simple partial derivative, for example, dB / dt ? I have tried

Use curly brackets to group expressions.

Example:
{ a + b } over { c + d } will give you a + b / c + d

Thanks a lot for an instant reply.. In the meantime, I've tried the babel.altavista German Arrow English translation of the pages that urlich told about in his/her message in the topic
http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10
and found it really helpful (I was just learning { } signs when your reply came!..)

The manual pages are at
