Two possibilities. The first one, using \ovalbox from fancybox :

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{fancybox}

\makeatletter
\newtheoremstyle{caja}
{\topsep}
{\topsep}
{\itshape}
{}
{\bfseries}
{}
{.5em}
{\ovalbox{\thmname{#1}~\thmnumber{#2}\@ifempty{#3}{.}{}\thmnote ...

proof and \qed are already defined (when loading the amsthm package). To avoid conflicts between your definitions and the ones from amsthm, you need to use \renewenvironment (for proof) and \renewcommand (for \qed), or choose different names (Mproof and \Mqed, for example).

Hi,

as you suspected, a table is the solution:

\documentclass{article}

\newlength\mylena
\newlength\mylenb
\setlength\mylena{\linewidth}
\settowidth\mylenb{\textbf{Term Address}}
\addtolength\mylena{-2\mylenb}

\begin{document}

text text text text text text text text text text text text text ...

Here's one possible solution, assuming that you are not using and will not use \paragraph . Copy the code between the %%%%%%%%%%%%%%% lines in the preamble of your document:

\documentclass{article}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\newcounter{mysection}
\renewcommand\themysection ...

Hi,

Which document class are you using?

Hi,

with the help of the caption package you can easily define a new type of caption (and a new List associated with it, also). A little example:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{caption}

\DeclareCaptionType{exam}[Example][List of Examples]

\begin{document}

\listofexams
\begin{enumerate ...

Hi,

you can use \markboth right after \chapter* :

\documentclass[twoside,openany]{report}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\fancyhead{}
\fancyhead[LE]{\raggedright\itshape\nouppercase{Name of the Book}}
\fancyhead[RO]{\raggedleft\itshape\nouppercase{\leftmark}}

\begin ...

Hi,

to add space above each row, you can use the \extrarowheight length:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array,multirow}

\begin{document}

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|}
\setlength\extrarowheight{4pt}
\hline
\textbf{Material} &\textbf{Significant pairs} &\textbf{p-value}\\[1ex]
\hline
\multirow{8 ...

Use the optional argument of the \caption command to avoid references from appearing in the LoF or in the LoT:

I can't seem to just type in a solitary ">" without a complaint from my LaTeX text editor. And "\>" doesn't work either.

If you load the fontenc package with T1 option as I suggested in my previous reply, you can simply type > and < without problems. Another option is to use \textgreater and ...
