Handbook error

[ANNIS]

Hi
I have created a mathcad handbook. But I get an error when I load sheets with calculations. When I open the a sheet from the table of contents Mathcad simply shuts down :-(

I anybody have an idea or a solution it would be perfect!?

I have created the E-book in Mathcad 14 020, and uploaded it. You have to extract it to ../mathcad/handbook/

I have removed some sheet in the E-book to decrease the size, so if some links dont work don't bother.

Annis,


I downloaded your sheets. I extracted the xmcd files from the zip.

I tried it in MathCad 14.020, the main ebook with the table of contents opened up. Clicking on the hyperlinks did not open the files, a message box popped up saying file not found. Mathcad did not shut down.

However, when I checked the hyperlink in the files, I found each one had the file name preceded by ./ The dialogue for the hyperlink had the box checked for use relative paths for filenames, I left this box checked because I think this is correct. I believe that you must maintain the same relative locations for the main file and the items on the table of contentes, for example, keep them all in the same folder.


I removed that and the hyperlinks worked.

I hope this helps.


regards,

Thx for the answer chichuck
Unfortunately, this is not the solution to my problem.
I have uploaded a screenshot of the error will try to translate the error message here :

Mathcad Application is stopped working
A problem caused the program stopped working properly. Windows closes the program and notify you if there is a solution to the problem.

Windows does not answer to the problem. I think that it may have something to do with my system. I sit on a computer with Windows Vista x64 system.

Annis,

It appears that you have 2 problems. I agree with Chichuck. Your incorrect hyperlinks are at least one problem.

The "A problem caused by the program..." seems to be not that unusual for me. I get the error quite often in similar situations - jumping between applications to find problems and during development. Fortunately, it does not happen often when I am focused on doing normal work. Mathcad has been the most unstable application I have had since version 1 in 1986 or thereabouts so stability problems are not a surprise. Cleaning up and registry cleaners seem to help but they are not bullet proof. I have just had to re-install 14.020 one function just stopped working. I thought I was going mad - it was something I had done on auto-pilot for 20 years.

Apparently.
"According to PTC, in order to use mathcad on a 64 bit computer you will need to install xml 6.

This is as of MathCAD M020. "
