Hello,

i would like to edit/modify the contents of a help reference page
(e.g. ref/NIntegrate ), so that i can print out *my modified version*.
For this, i have copied the *.nb-file to D:\ , opened it with
notepad.exe and set ( Saveable->True ) to ( Saveable->False ). Now
when i add a new input line (In[21] .. Out[21]) and close the page, i
am prompted to save it.

I still cannot modify the original text..

Please tell me how it works out, thanks! (tested instructions)

Hi Sci,
i dont recommend doing that but here's a way i found out in favour of
you:

0) close all Mathematica
1) find the file "reference.nb" (on Windows to be found at: C:\Program
Files\Wolfram Research Mathematica 7.0\SystemFiles\FrontEnd\StyleSheets
\Wolfram\reference.nb )
2) open it with a text editor (and not with Mathematica)
3) do a find&replace for ALL instances of "Editable->False". replace
it with "Editable->True".
4) repeat steps 1)-3) for the file "core.nb"
5) launch Mathematica
6) open your help page on "ref/NIntegrate". happy editing!!! :D

And to revert to the previous state, simply go thru the steps in
reverse order (6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, boom!)
Good luck,
Dan

you can find the Editable's in reference.nb (and also core.nb). Switch
them to True.
