I have written a procedure to overload a new "Subs" function. It uses a seq of equations as its first argument followed by the object to act upon (yes, it is to have subs functionality on these objects). I find the overloading works when I have just one equation in the argument list, but with more than one it never calls any of the procedures. The code worked with multiple equations before I overloaded it (i.e. the first proc was verified by itself). FWIW the objects (elemt or bm...

Hi; I am working on a package where the data mostly come in Maple records with a varisble number of fields with different names. At least one field in each record has a 6 by 6 matrix, the expressions of which involve the values associated with at least some of the other fields.

Occasionally I have the need to, say, apply a function to each of these fields. E.g., I want to substitute a value for a specific name; this name may show up in several fields and also will show up in the matrix.

I have written a procedure that creates lists of numbers (for later plotting, but that is irrelevant here). These lists I have programmed as 1-d rtables (Vectors and Arrays). Since I do not know initially how many entries the procedure will generate I am using programmer indexing (with round braces) so the Arrays and Vectors get extended as needed, 1 entry at a time. Basically; I dynamically allocate storage in this way. Maybe not the most efficient way but should work for now.

Here is a possibly stupid one: I have written a couple of help files for a package I am developing. As things go; I want to update one. In the help system it tells me to edit the .mw file that i used to write the page in the first place, which I did. But then I am supposed to "Save to Database" from the Help menu.

But... there is no entry to "Save to Database..." in any menu; help or otherwise. Not even in the help system. So I am stuck with an edited help page that I cannot get to ...

Hi, is there any sane way to incorporate Maple 2-D output in PowerPoint, 2004 in my case (and 2004 does not support MathML, I believe)? Preferably I'd copy from Maple and Paste into ppt. I have not been able to make that work.

The pedestrian way right now for me is to use Grab and take a screen shot of the expressions. Not a nice way...

Thanks,
