Changes in how Mathcad works
Changes in how Mathcad works
(OP)
I have Mathcad 13. I often use the Given and Find feature.
My problem arises from the length and complexity if the answers. Sometimes the stretch across several pages. To simplify is used
solve:=Find(E,F,G,H)
I wrote some programs many years ago in Mathcad 11. Now it doesn't work. It did work but it doesn't now. I must put a -> or ctrl period after the find to get a solution.
solve:=Find(E,F,G,H)->
This causes the whole solution display which stretches across pages. Before I didn't need the -> or ctrl period so the variable solve would contain the solution. I could then use the submatrix function to use just what I wanted.
The requirement that the Find has a follow -> or ctrl period makes my use of the submatrix obsolete because now I get the whole solution whether I need it or not.
Even the examples in the on-line help don't work unless I put a -> or ctrl period behind the find.
I set the compatibility options to Mathcad 11 but Find still doesn't work without the ->
Any ideas or work arounds?

RE: Changes in how Mathcad works
y(x)=A+B*x+C*x^2+D*x^3+E*x^4+F*x^5+G*x^6+H*x^7
symbolically. This is an old worksheet that was written using Mathcad 11. It did work as is. I have had to add the Find()-> to all my old worksheets to get it to work. :(
