Which version of Mathcad comes with Creo Parametric 3?

[David_M]

The installer, links and title say Mathcad Prime, but the "about" page says Mathcad Express, both version 3.1.

I read that if you buy Mathcad Prime you can also use Mathcad 15. Does this apply to the version bundled with Creo Parametric 3? I'm guessing not.

Cheers

Mathcad Prime and Express are the same installer, which is probably the source of the confusion. Express is what you get if you don't have a license for Mathcad. Since PTC does not seem inclined to ever give anything away for free, my guess is that you have Express. If you have a license for Prime it will also work for Mathcad 15, but as I said, my guess is that you don't. You can tell for sure by starting Mathcad. If you have Express, it says so at the top of the screen.
