We are in the very beginning of implementation of Maple in our office, and are trying to write the first programs.

For the moment we are building a material database, starting from Excel, and generating a Maple library out of that. Afterwards we are going to pull the data from the library, and show it in a nice output.

We've so far managed to write the library, but we are running into problems with variable names.

In Maple 2D notation a variable with indexes including a comma is no problem. My specific problem is, how can I use those variables in a program in Maple 1D notation.

Here are some examples of variables which are relevant.

Need some help building a worksheet where I try to populate a listbox with items from a package / library.

Starting point could be the "Simply Supported Beam Design" example from MapleSoft Application Center (https://www.maplesoft.com/applications/view.aspx?SID=154265).

In this example, profiles are defined from the AISC Steel Shapes Database.

1. I would like to have a list of the defined properties of the package / library.
2. I would like to have a list of all available profiles.

I'd like to populate a listbox from elements of a matrix, but need some help.

I created an empty listbox with name ListBox0, and try to add a name from the matrix.

DataSet := Matrix(3, 3, [[Tim, 21, 80], [Tom, 23, 86], [Tinker, 25, 90]])

with*DocumentTools

SetProperty("ListBox0", DataSet[1, 1])

We've just decided to jump from Mathcad to Maple, and are doing our very first steps with Maple.

Our company is a small sized engineering company (15 employees), and what I am looking for is a bit help to make a working company setup.

This includes in the first run - how do I create and tell Maple where to find those items?

• Templates with company logo
• Programs and packages
• Are there any configuration variables that can / should be set?
• Are there any other common files that can be made accessible for all on a common network server?
