Cannot Open Equations in MS Equation 2.0
Using Word 2000 I converted several WordPerfect documents that contained
equations in Corel Equation Editor 2.0. I was able to open and edit the equations in the finished Word 2000 document. Since that time I upgraded to Word 2002. I now cannot open, edit, or convert the equations in the previously prepared documents. When I try to open or convert, Word returns the message: The server application source file or item cannot be found." Right clicking identifies the object type as Microsoft Equation 2.0. Same result using Word 2003. I can open and edit the equations in Word 2000, although I apparently can't convert them to MS Equation 3.0, which I would need to edit in Word 2002. If it were just a few equations I could re-enter. However, I have over 100. If anyone knows how I can edit or convert it would be a big help. |

Jerry, if you want to send me a couple pages of that document privately, I'll take a look at it to see if I can see a problem with it. It's an interesting problem though, since the version of Equation Editor that shipped with Office 2000 is essentially the same as the version that shipped with Office 2002 and Office 2003. -- Bob Mathews Director of Training 830-990-9699 http://www.dessci.com/free.asp?free=news FREE fully-functional 30-day evaluation of MathType 5 Design Science, Inc. -- "How Science Communicates" MathType, WebEQ, MathPlayer, MathFlow, Equation Editor, TeXaide |
