Hit the Sqrt key, I see Sqrt( 2. I type in: 123/3) 3. I now see: Sqrt(123/3) 4. I hit enter 5. I now see: 6.403124237 I only see a malformed expression warning if I do not type in the closing parenthesis. i.e. Trying to evaluate: Sqrt(123/3 You have to enter the calculation properly. If you then type in the closing parenthesis, and hit enter, it works. NB: You can use the equals key on the program, the keyboard, or the enter key, to do the same function (work out the anwser) -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
