Change of ORIGIN problem

I have a problem with ORIGIN in Mathcad Express 7.  I use the default ORIGIN at the start of a worksheet, do some calculations, then change to ORIGIN = 1, do some calculations, then change back to ORIGIN = 0 and repeat the original calculations.   However, whilst Mathcad reports that ORIGIN has changed to 1, it seems to behave as though the ORIGIN is still 1.   I don't know what I'm doing, or thinking, wrong.

 

The attached Mathcad Express 7 worksheet may, or may not, show the problem.

Thanks for the reply.   Whilst looking to see what you were referring to, I found the problem.  When I set ORIGIN:=0 (in the 2nd blue highlighted region), for some reason it set the Label to "Variable".

 

Changing the Label to "System" produced the desired result.

 

Cheers,

 

Stuart
