    You can put it on via Insert -> Symbol,

    But it's easier to just superscript 2: highlight the 2 and press (CTRL)+(SHIFT)+(=)

    As for the subscript for y1, x1, (CTRL)+(=)

    These are the default shortcuts, you can also use the Format -> Font menu

    Alt 251, 252, 253 for those in Dos (depending on codepage 457/850)

    You should try MS Equation (free) for entering mathematical equations. Very handy and easy to use.

    But mind-numbingly slow to use.
    If you're gonna use a lot of equations in documents learning to type in TeX might be a good idea.
