"I was amazed how fast MathCAD went away" :-) Unnerving, isn't it? So it
happens in Mathcad 12 too, eh? Hmmm. What OS are you using?

Interesting that you used Backspace instead of Delete. That would never
have occurred to me. I tried both flavours of blue right-angled cursor
with Backspace and Delete. Backspace works with both flavours. You've
seen the consequence of using Delete with one flavour... and as I
posted in reply to Mark Smith, trying to use Delete with the other
flavour just "reverses flavour polarity" for me (his mileage varied,
evidently). It's been so long since I had to refer to the manual that
you've got me wondering now if Backspace is the way I'm supposed to
Delete things (albeit even if it is, hitting Delete shouldn't have such
catastrophic results). I'm going to check.

Product Reviews

"Our work ranges from complex medical imaging research to large-scale mapping and diagrams and we need a tool that is able to handle anything we investigate. With Mathcad, we are able to manipulate and analyse our data quickly while at the same time documenting our work, for sharing and publication. We also use it for pilot studies conducted in support of research grant applications. It is an end-to-end tool for research and development."
Dr. Kenneth Castleman, President of Advanced Digital Imaging Research (ADIR), Houston, Texas

"Mathcad is an integral product for my work... With Mathcad, itís easy to disseminate design calculations because the documents look like real math. Thereís very little I canít do in Mathcad. The main benefits come from the format, which resemble a typed set of calculations. These programs are easier to develop by engineers and easier for others to follow and review since the logic is expressed in a familiar manner. The format is what places Mathcad head and shoulders above other programs of a similar function."
Andre Pavlov, Structural Engineer, Florida Department of Transportation
