Default End Notes and Math Formulas?

That's where you're making your mistake. Before you update, you have to make
some changes. You need to expand the Microsoft Office Tools item and make
sure that Equation Editor is set to "Run from My Computer" before you finish
the process.

Let's go back to the original instructions:

Go to Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs, select Microsoft Office, and
click the Change button. In the first page, select "Add or Remove
Features."
On the next page, expand "Office Tools." Select Equation Editor and set
it
to "Run from My Computer." Click the Update button, and insert the Office
CD
when prompted.

Did you do this?

I pressed Update on Add/Remove Program forMS Office 2003. It shows a
Wizard dialog with three choices. I took Add/Remove Features. I now see
Custom Setup with six choices--Word, Excel, ..., etc. They are all
checked, and I leave them that way. I click the Update button. 10 seconds
later it shows the update is complete. I press OK, and am done. Maybe I
need to reboot?

Expand? Update? The only thing I see that seems to fit "before" is the check
box on the Custom Setup dialog (six components listed) that says Choose
advanced customization of applications. Is that whay you mean?

If I use it, then a tree of items is displayed. One being "Wizards and
Template". One is "Run from My Computer". Should I select that and press the
Update button shown there?

Yes, you should choose the "advanced customization." Then note that each
component can be expanded. One of those components should be Office Tools.
Click the plus sign beside it to expand it. Click the arrow beside Equation
Editor and choose Run from My Computer. Do not change anything else. Then
click Update.

I progressed through the "Run from My Computer", and was greeted with
"installation error: file not found. ZF612707.CAB missing" I have my CD
ready ... Nope. I pulled it out last night. Ah, it finished. I do not see MS
Equation and variations in the Object item for Insert (menu). Maybe I need
to close Word, or reboot? I had a Word doc open while I was doing all this.
Ah,ha. After restarting Word, it's there. Thanks.

Going back to End Notes, I wanted to reference the same end note from two
places in the text. Word wants to create a new number. How do I direct the
end note to one I've already established?

Insert | Reference | Cross-reference to Endnote: Endnote number (formatted)

Unless what you really want is a numbered list of references, in which case
see http://daiya.mvps.org/biblio.htm#AlphaEndnotes
