Maybe Workbench isn't the proper way to go. Extending Mathematica with user code and having it blend with Mathematica's native stuff is a bit of a trick. Anyone know a good source of documentation if I am going to skip workbench? > > Thanks, > Paul > > > Paul McHale | Electrical Engineer, Energetics Systems | Excelitas Technologies Corp. > > Phone: +1 937.865.3004 | Fax: +1 937.865.5170 | Mobile: +1 937.371.2828 > 1100 Vanguard Blvd, Miamisburg, Ohio 45342-0312 USA > Paul.McHale at Excelitas.com<mailto:Paul.McHale at perkinelmer.com> > www.excelitas.com<http://www.excelitas.com> > > [cid:image001.png at 01CB9136.E3D96D90] > > Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail. > This email message and any attachments are confidential and proprietary to Excelitas Technologies Corp.

Open the preferences, select Mathematica, and you will see the list of installations, and from here you can edit one and change the path that it points to. See http://reference.wolfram.com/workbench/topic/com.wolfram.eclipse.help/html/reference/preferences/installations.html for more details. If Mathematica wasn't started by the Workbench then you wouldn't see the DocumentationTools setup, which I think is why you don't see them when you open version 8. Once you have pointed the workbench at version 8, everything should be setup correctly. Everything with Wolfram Workbench 2.0 does work Mathematica 8, including documentation work, but we are working on an update, but no timeframe is available at this time.
