Can I use VBA script to delete xlsx files from inside Mathcad?

Hi,I have two different files in which I have the same function defined. For this function, I want to perform a "minimize" in order to find out its minimum across a certina interval of the variables that make up the function. I would have expected the guess values to have no effect on the rezult of the minimize, but apparently they do have (I get different results from applying "minimize" depending on the guess values I write. Does anybody know whty this happens? Below you may find a screenshot of the two different mathcad files, side by side. I have also attached the files themselves.Thank you and best regards,Cristian

When I create an Analysis from the Analysis tab in Creo Parametric (no "Behavioral Modeler"), the only "type" option available is Prime Analysis. From the Prime Analysis dialogue, I can initiate or load a MathCAD Express Prime 3.0 file. I gather from my reading that in order to pass data between MathCAD and Creo, I need to assign a region tag to the math region in MathCAD. I have read that this is done by right-clicking on the region to bring up the Properties dialogue where the tag can be assigned. Unfortunately, when I right click on a math region in MathCAD Express, there is either no response or just a simple cut/copy/delete menu with no properties item. I can find no alternative for properties or region tags in MathCAD Express Prime. Am I correct in concluding that I'm up the creek without a paddle, or have I overlooked something?

Hi all, I need to divide different imported 2D shapes/curves into triangles having (almost) equal sides. Is it possible in Mathcad?I've found that there are many triangulation functions in MATLAB like trimesh:http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/triangulation-representation.htmlbut I'd like to use the results in Creo 2.(I'm not a MathCad or MATLAB user -so far-, just looking for possibilites and solutions.)

Hi, Any one can help me to correct my mathermatical expression using MATH CAD prime 3.0. I attached the spreadsheet and I need to get an answer for the element in Array if the element is Compact, semi or slender.Please resend to me the file with your correct mathematical formulas.

I am sorry, because I guess that my question is either very trivial (and I missed it), or without positive answer.I need to change in a Mathcad (v.11 still, but I tried also with v.15) a matrix dimension from 3 to 2. I have several equations, with "identity(3)" function, that needs to be corrected accordingly. I thought that the replace command would suffice to make a global change. Yet there is no way that Mathcad finds (both regions selected) the terms "identity(3)" in my worksheet, even if they are there. The culprit seems the bracket character. Is there a way to make the find/replace command work? Thanks.

Hi All,I am trying to set up the following definite Integral in MathCad as a function of wt, not just t, how would I do that.eg (1/2pi) Int 0 to 3 sin(wt-0.361) dwt.Thanks in advance.Vijay

Hello,How can I use "rnd" function to generate random numbers between [-1,1] rather than [0,1] ? Thank you.

Hello guys!I purchased a Matchad 15 student version and I just bought a new laptop to run analyses in parallel. I would need to use Matchad on either laptop at different time, i.e. Matchad would run on one machine only per session. The two laptops are on the same network and connected to internet through a single router. Is there any quick way to move the license from one machine to the other any time I want? Thanks!!!- Riccardo

Please, download the Mathcad 15 sheet, input new a and/or b and see new result!

If statement not working after Mathcad 15 to Mathcad Prime 3 conversion.nn = 0, 1, .. 499P[nn := if(nn = 0, S[0, P[(nn-1) - S[n)Mathcad Prime complains that P[(nn-1) is not defined, but works in Mathcad 15.Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hi all,I am working on expanding the functionality of an old program to be able to perform an vector of cases for an already established vector. I have worked out all of the issues within the program to calculate each reasulting array/matrix. Now I want to compare results across the matrices using the max function. Previously I had used the augment function to combine vectors, but that isn't keeping the m,n combinations needed to be compared across the matrices at each m,n. Basically, I have x number of 11 x 7 matrices that I want the maximum value for each m,n combination reported in a resulting 11 x 7 matrix. I have inserted the image below the shows what I have described above. I want the maximum value for each m,n in this matrix for the X number of nested matrices. This example just shows 2 matrices are nested.I would greatly appreciate the help of the community. I searched previous postings and it seems that you can't do a calculation, such as max in this situation, so I would app

Hello,please see attached sheet. i have a bunch of questions. they are in red txt. in some i am trying to find the reson for getting the error, and others if there is a better way to do things. Thanks!

Hi!I recently just re-installed Mathcad 15 (student version/license) on my Windows 8.1 machine. Every time I start Mathcad 15 I get the dialog saying something to the effect that a license could not be found. So I go through the process every time of choosing to reaquire my licensce via internet from PTC...Does anyone know of a fix for this aggravating issue?Thanks,Pat

As part of a Mathcad sheet, I wish to include a short section on the derivation of an equation. This involves a definite integral.I can write the initial integral with limits, and can write the ultimate result of the integral. However, as a lot of the terms cancel out or evaluate to zero when the limits are applied, I would like to be able to state the symbolic result of the integration, but without the limits substituted in, as is usually denoted by square brackets with the sub and superscripts following for the limits. Is there a way to display this type of format in Mathcad? I can neither work out a way to force the square brackets to be displayed, nor add the required sub and superscripts.Thanks

Hello, from an appendix of a book publication I got some mcd files (year: 2004). Unfortunately, MathCad Prime 3.0 cannot open the files ("unknown format").How can I open those mcd files with MathCad prime 3? Is there a converter available ?ThanksKlaus

Here is a link to blog from PTC regarding Prime 3.1, details of Prime 4.0 and 5.0.http://blogs.ptc.com/2014/09/15/ptc-mathcad-prime-past-present-future/They outline the features which are to included in Prime 4.0 and the features under consideration for Prime 5.0.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to square the the values in a non-square matrix in a function. In order to do this, I use the vectorize operator above the operation (squaring or multiplying the radii together). However, I'm getting an error in this step, which appears due to the definition of the function. I'm not able to determine the cause, as if I were to perform the operation on a copy of the matricies, it works just fine. Furthermore, I've used the operation in a fuction definition other places in the file.Thank you!

In the PTC product calendar (http://www.ptc.com/cs/product_calendar/PTC_Product_Calendar.htm#RANGE!A474) will be prompted to Mathcad Prime 3.1 F000. Has anyone heard anything about this?

Another new MathCAD user. Been mucking about with Prime for a while and able to find/work out most of the things I am looking for, but having trouble with 3D plots. In particular, I don't know where I am failing in moving a set of 2D plots into a surface within a 3D plot.There are two range variables I have defined (d and theta) and the output is gamma as a percentage. I have placed the problem in question on the last page (4/4), with a working 2D plot on the page before. Could someone please point me in the right direction?Thanks in advance!

Just started using MathCAD today, so I am very new to it. I am basically trying to solve a complicated equation (shaft diameter sizing) with a bunch of known variables in terms of 1 unknown variable. I want to have the answer in symbolic terms so I can use the same equation for different sized shaft calculations. How the heck do I do this? I have been looking at the help files and other posts for some time now and still am not any clearer. Please see the attached file for reference.Thanks in advance!Rob

I have attached a mathcad file (2015). I have problem with opening the file, when i try to open it, it says: "mathcad application has stopped working", and shut down. I dont know whats wrong with the file, but I dont have any problems with opnening other mathCad files. It is just this one. Are there someone who can help me?And can you tell me what I shall not do to end like this again?

Hello All. Within my program, there is a solve block that finds some parameters with given guess values. For repeating the calculations, the guess values must be changed according to the new set of inputs.Is there any way to define a local function that automatically change the guess values and use this local function inside the main body of my program?the attached file contains the solve block that I need to express as a local function.thank you in advance.

Hi Could anyone explain me about creating STEP file for Pro Cabling assembly in Wildfire 4ThanksSenthil
