Define equals bug? (Mathcad 14)

[Fizix]

Try the following:

Maybe I am understanding incorrectly, but nothing after the = sign should affect the definition of "This", but it does. If I format the result by putting mW for the units on the far right of the definition it changes the value of "This" from mW to W (i.e. it multiplies the values of the definition by 1000).

In fact if I put W*A on the far right (on the defition line) it does not change the value of "This". However if I put W*mA on the far right it again multiplies the definition of "This" by 1000.

I searched in the old Collab and this section, but did not find anything.

Am I missing something here?

Which version of 14 are you using?

[ValeryOchkov]

All is correct in Mathcad 15!

[Fizix]

I am using Mathcad 14.0.0.163.

Here is an upload of a newly created worksheet.

I have not migrated to 15 yet, because last I knew it was not compatible with MS Office 2010.

Download and install the latest service release for version 14. The problem will go away.

You need to upgrade to the latest version of M14, I think it's M20.

I'm not sure about that. Does M14 work with Office 2010?

Thanks guys,

I think I already have the download, just haven't gotten around to updating.

As far as Mathcad 14 and Office 2010. I haven't had any issues so far.

Take this off the cuff, but I wouldn't imagine Mathcad 15 not being compatible with Office 2007, if Mathcad has no issues.
