Non Commutative Multiply [duplicate]

Possible Duplicate: Non-commutative symbolic linear algebra I want to multiply two matrices, for example, A = {{e, f}, {g, h}} B = {{a, b}, {c, d}} Using A.B, Mathematica returns {{a e + … + d g, c f + d h}} I would like to get, however, the following result: {{e a + f c, e b + f d}, {g a + h c, g b + h d}} since, for me, the entries {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h} are operators, i.e. they are non-commutative
