Tim (and others), The EXP 5.1 CD-ROM is not an upgrade. It is a new, clean installation. You do NOT need to install EXP 5.0 to install EXP 5.1. Simon ... From:...
Hi, Simon: It was nice to be in the EXP support group (the only group I belong to). My dilemma is related to the graphics. Professor Straight (below) raised...

One way to place symbols on a drawing that I've used is to create the drawing in a draw package, then copy and paste it to Geometer's Sketchpad. Sketchpad has...

I agree with the comments from both Simon and Jonathan. I tend to use an old ShareWare program called TopDraw. The author quit supporting it several years ago...

There is a great Freeware program called Graph that you can use. It allows you to plot just about anything 2D you can imagine and will put labeled points on...
I much appreciate insights from all of you. I certainly give it a try to quite a few options I now have with drawing programs. Matlab does not seem to be an...

Eugene, As I understand from the description of your problem, your main trouble is the handling of fonts by different programs. This is a general Windows...

I am pretty sure the answer is no. Simon spent a lot of time programming around problems in Windows and did not optimize it for any other system. You concern...

I agree with Bill. I've been using the EXP since 1986 i.e. with its DOS version. Never has Dr. Simon Smith ever mentioned that the EXP PC versions were...

Bill: In your reply to Peter Vanderschraaf you suggest looking into using WINE to run EXP on Linux. Have you done it, or is there anyone who has done it? If...
Hi, All! I tried installing EXP 5.0 under Fedora a couple of years back. I might try again, though, as much progress had been made, and a couple of new...
Wish I could help there, but I really have not ever been successful at getting WINE to work - not that I have tried hard. It would be nice to hear from anyone...
We have been using EXP 5.0 for several years. Other colleagues are not encountering the problem I am having. When I attempt to open an EXP file, I get a...
In situations as described it is usually something wrong with the special EXP fonts, or their registration within Windows. You might retry the new installation...

In addition to fonts and the EXP 5.1 issue (probably the major reason), it may also be that a special file sheet was needed. Typically you would get a message...
5.0 and 5.1 coexist well, as they don't go to the same program file folder....

Simon announced sometime last spring that EXP 5.1 works on VISTA. There is no support for EXP5.0, but I assume that some of the same guidelines would apply....
I assume you are talking about 5.02, not 5.0. Right? If you have some of the files written in 5.02, but you attempt to read it in 5.0 (probably because you ...
