[mathcad] Pasting MathCAD documents (V11) into MS Word (97)
Author: Oakley, Philip UK    Posted: Tue, 26 Oct 2004 09:41:52 +0100

Hi

I had to paste a 20 page MathCAD document into Word for a report. The user wanted to be able to edit the text elements when in the report and do all the usual post processing for publication.
As most of you will know this can be excruciating, however I have found an easy way for MathCAD V11 to Word 97.

The basic solution is to select all the MathCAD regions (ctrl-A, ctrl-C), then in Word (in a blank document) to use >Edit>Paste Special, and select paste as 'Formatted Text(RTF)'. At this stage it will look horrible with lots of overlapping frames of text and equations.

Now the neat bit. Create (>Tools>Macro>Macros.. Create) and Run the deceptively simple Word macro:

Sub removeAllFrames()
' Macro 25/10/04 by Philip Oakley
For Each frm In Word.ActiveDocument.Frames
With frm
.Select
.Delete
End With
Next frm
End Sub

The screen will flicker madly as Word repaginates after each change but when finished you should find all the text and equation are in the right order and readable, and easily adjustable for that glossy report.

Comments and improvements are welcomed
