greek letters in equations

Hi:

I am using Open Office 3.3.0 on a Window's 7 computer

In the past, the default behaviour of the equation editor was to put 
Greek letters (eg Beta) in italics. Now regular letters (eg Y) are put 
in italics but Greek letters are not.

Does anyone know how to change that (I can't find any general settings 
which control this behaviour).

One work around is to put the "ital" command into the equation, but this 
has the undesirable effect of making any subscripts italicized also. For 
example

Y = %beta_0    results in the Y being italicized (good) but not the Beta 
(bad)

Y = ital %beta_0 will italize the Beta, but also the subscripted 0 
(which I don't want)

I would be very grateful if anyone knows how to revers this change in 
behaviour of the equation editor (I am not sure which version it 
happened with).

Thank you
Ian Dohoo
