    Does anyone know of any applications out there whose sole purpose is to
    create mathematical formulae for inclusion to the word processor of your
    choice. I recall this one program called MathWriter that allowed for
    very EASY generation of formulae, but I can no longer find it.

I have used MathType and it works well for us.  Basically it allows
you to select the symbols and the placement in a "hot-key" style (no
explicit copy-paste step needed...hurray).  Once your equation is
finished, just copy-paste the whole equation into your Word document.  

Mathtype even has a demo disk that you can get... (can't recall the
publisher or number, but can pass this information on when I return to
the office).
