Have you installed the Equation Editor in Word?

If you originally installed Microsoft Office from a network file server or
from a shared folder, you must install Equation Editor from that location. If
you installed Office from a CD-ROM, you must install Equation Editor from the
disc.

Quit all programs.
Do one of the following:
If you run Microsoft Windows 2000, double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon
in Control Panel.
If you run Microsoft Windows XP, click Add or Remove Programs in Control
Panel.
In the Currently installed programs box, click the listing for Microsoft
Office or Microsoft Word, depending on whether you installed Word as part of
Office or as an individual program, and then click Change.
On the Maintenance Mode Options screen, click Add or Remove Features, and
then click Next.
If a Custom Setup screen appears, select the Choose advanced customization
of applications check box, and then click Next.
In the list of features to install, click the expand indicator (+) next to
Office Tools.
Click the arrow next to Equation Editor, and then click Run from My Computer.
Click Update.
Restart Word.
