Conversion of old mcd files to Math cad Prime 6.0

Thank you.

Do you mind if I ask what software or application did you use to convert these files? I have 80 files to convert, so I will not bother other people on my behalf.

 

Thank you.

the converter is in Prime 6 itself. Input/Output Tab

 Hi Teddy,

 

Write me a private message and I will help with the conversion of absolutely all files.

If you have Prime 7 this should be no problem as P7 is selfcontained with a converter.

Prime 6 and below have conversion ability, too (as can be seen in the pic ppal posted) but to be able to use it you have to install the full version of good old Mathcad 15. The license file you use for Prime 6 will also enable you to use MC15.
If you use the trial or Express version of P6 you have to hurry because MC15 will run in trial mode for about one month and after that refuses to start.

An additional problem is that PTC has stopped providing Mathcad 15 with the beginning of this year. But you can find it still at many places an the net if you search around a little bit.
Rumor has it that  even its not offered officially by PTC anymore, you still can download it from them (not sure how long, though, so be quick!) here:

http://download.ptc.com/products/mathcad/trial/mc15/Mathcad15_EN.zip
You may guess what to change the "EN" at the end for to get a version in your language if its not English.

Good luck!
