    showing results at the begging of a long worksheet

    I added a list of desired outputs at the bottom of the long worksheet and collapsed the area between the inputs and the outputs. The collapsed area seems to calculate just fine. This method reduced the worksheet from 33 pages to 6 pages which makes it much easier to perform a sensitivity...

    showing results at the begging of a long worksheet

    Jmiec - I discovered that a region is preventing the reference as you pointed out. I have three list boxes in the worksheet that are interdependent (the items in list box two and three depend on the selections in one and two). It seems that the referencing ceases to work at the second list...

    showing results at the begging of a long worksheet

    Yes, I tried referencing the long workheet in a summary sheet too. I get an error saying that the variables are undefined which really stumps me.

    showing results at the begging of a long worksheet

    I have a pretty large worksheet that is about 32 pages long. The first two pages define some units and the required inputs. Throughout the worksheet are some results I would like to show alongside the inputs so I don't have to scroll through the whole worksheet to find them. I tried placing...

    mathcad and excel

    IRstuff, Is this what you mean? Using the insert-data-file input to read a contiguous array I was able to select the excel tab the input range was on. I then performed some simple operation on this input array in and tried to use the insert-data-file output function to output an array to a...

    mathcad and excel

    I have an excel file that has about 19 individual cells that I need to input to Mathcad. The inputs are located in a single columen i.e B2, B4, B5, B9, etc. I then need 13 outputs - the result of performing operations on these variables back into the same excel sheet at various cell locations...

    Disapparing BOM data and template data to disappear

    We tried the plot black only option with no luck. Does anyone know if the post script drivers are required for the plotter? We only have the hpgl drivers installed.

    Disapparing BOM data and template data to disappear

    Our IT folk updated the HPGL driver on our HP-1050 to the latest version. This did not make a difference. All text whether in BOM balloons, BOM tables, or the drawing border does not plot. Any advice?

    Disapparing BOM data and template data to disappear

    I had a user in the drafting department check the print preview and the information does appear on the print preview. I'll ask our IT department to check into the drivers for the plotters. I'll post the results.

    Disapparing BOM data and template data to disappear

    This problem is consistent with the three users in our drafting departmentwho have acess to our HP plotters. All are using XP professional but there are several different Nvidia cards all of which are using drivers that pass the SolidWorks RX check. I can get some specific card data and reply...

    Disapparing BOM data and template data to disappear

    When printing from SW2006 sp3.4 with Image quality and HLR res maximized; convert draft quality to high quality and pring high quality options checked; I get the good image quality but the BOM information and template (drawing border)data disappears? With the print high quality option unchecked...

    solve block question

    Thanks for the reply. Since the variables I wish to solve for do not have the same units, is there a clever work around to get the solve block to work or do I need to adjust the equations so that they are dimensionless? Steve

    solve block question

    When solving a system of simultaneous equations, do the variables need to be unitless? I have a system of six equations with six unknowns in a solve block. At the end of the solve block {i.e. find u,v,w,x,y,z) = }One of the arguments highlights and I get an error message that says "The units...

    HARD PAGE BREAKS

    Thanks. It does work in v7. My original post seems like a stupid question now, but the procedure outlined in the help file doesn't work. Thanks again.

    HARD PAGE BREAKS

    I need to delete some hard page breaks in a (mathcad version 7.03a) worksheet. However, the little down-turned bend on the extreme left of the page break line (where I'm supposed to shift+left_click to select for deletion) is not there/visible. I have tried changing my screen resolution and...

    Header/Footer Date Stamp

    Thanks for the replies. The patch to 7.03a did the trick.

    Header/Footer Date Stamp

    My default header/footer date feature in Mathcad 7 displays as 6/16/1904. A co-workers date feature (also using Matchcad 7) displays as 6/16/04. How can I change my date display to the 21 century or at least configure it like my co-workers. The help files don't seem to address this. Thanks.

    sensitivity and optimization

    Thanks for the reply Scott. However, I was not very clear in my original post. My company is moving to standardize on SolidWorks from PRO/E and Inventor and I am not familar with the capabilities of SolidWorks. What I was getting at in my original post is using SolidWorks to perform...

    sensitivity and optimization

    Can SolidWorks perform sensitivity and optimization studies like PRO/E's behavioural modeling module?
