Question:How do I use inert exponent &^ in 2D-math input?

In order to use efficient exponentiation modulo a number n, Maple help recommends using the inert &^ notation in the input, e.g. 5 &^ 1000 mod 29. But when I try to type this input in (default) 2D-Math mode, it interprets the ^ as it usually does for exponents and tries to "raise" the & to the power of 1000. Is there a way to do this correctly in 2D-Math, or do I constantly have to switch over to 1D-Math? I am using Maple 16.
