Re: estimating

We've used it in kind of a reverse way in figuring out the total cost of 
the job when it's finished. We'll ex****t the BOM to Excel and include 
the cost of each item into the spreadsheet when it gets ordered since 
the person ordering has no SW license. Makes it easier in the end to add 
everything up. This could be done right in SW if it was available to 
him. So it would be possible to do the same thing that you're looking at 
doing right in SW.
