editing the model in word

Hi,

Is there a way in Vensim to have all the equations perfectly edited so that they can be paste easily in Word? For example instead of having something like that pasted (with tags, alineas and unwanted space everywhere):

(002) "actual cash-flow margin"=
XIDZ(total cash commitments on debts , total gross profit included in decision
, "maximum value of the cash-flow margin")
Units: 1

You directly have something like that (with no alineas at the end of each line and space where they need to be) :

(02) “actual cash-flow margin” = XIDZ(total cash commitments on debts, total gross profit included in decision, “maximum value of the cash-flow margin”)
Units: 1

If not it would be a nice thing to develop for vensim (this all the more the case that even if you try to do it right when you type the equations, vensim then changes the formating, adding tags, spaces, and alineas everywhere). it would save a lot of time...Especially when you have 100+ equations...

Cheers
Eric

When using the document tool, does clicking "Terse" give you what you need?

Not with PLE is the basic answer. The document tool can be configured to do this with Pro/DSS (set line length to a big number and format to original).
