inserting LaTeX for vertical bar in equation editor

[Thomas Ligon]

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/inserting-latex-for-vertical-bar-in-equation/...

(also good), but inserting

\left|{s}\right| + \left|{j - s}\right|

does not work correctly.

This was originally reported on answers.microsoft.com, and I also submitted it via File/Feedback/Send a Frown, and it has been accepted by support, so I expect that a fix will be made.
