Do not cut an equation integrated into a text

Hello,
When integrating an equation into a text (i.e., without dedicating an entire line to the equation), Word splits the equation in the middle if it needs to start a new line.
This is inconvenient for me; is there a way to tell it that an equation is an inseparable unit?
Example (the content of an equation in brackets)
my text is the following:
"The dog is red and differentiable, it’s a 3rd element such that [E_ige=\epsilon pi\cdot d^4/64, \epsilon \in{1,2,3}] and for which we love chocolate."
It’s too long to fit on a single line; Word wants to display:
"The dog is red and differentiable, it’s a 3rd element such that [E_ige=\epsilon pi\cdot d^4/64, \epsilon \in
{1,2,3}] and for which we love chocolate."
I want to have:
"The dog is red and differentiable, it’s a 3rd element such that
[E_ige=\epsilon pi\cdot d^4/64, \epsilon \in{1,2,3}] and for which we love chocolate."
with sufficiently large spaces between the words of "The dog is red and differentiable, it’s a 3rd element such that" so that the overall text is justified.
Do you have a solution?
I am using Word 2007.
Thank you in advance.

Hello,
Select the formula
Ctrl+f Find >> type space
Replace with non-breaking space >> type Ctrl+ Shift+ space
Replace all. -
You place yourself just before the start of the equation and make a paragraph (or line) break ...

You can't write a text both in prose and in verse; you have to choose.
So either your text is not justified, or your formula is cut off.
But you can still have fun:
- by reducing the font size
- by using a font like Arial Narrow or Agency FB
- by juggling with
Format/Font/Advanced Settings/Character Spacing/Condensed Spacing
In all 3 cases, you'll spend time on it, and the result won't be pretty...
