COST ESTIMATION PROGRAM Version 1.2 ----------------------- HOW TO RUN THE PROGRAM ---------------------- This program is Excel dependant. Therefore, Excel 97+ must be installed on your computer for it to run. To run the program you can either double click on the program icon, or start it from within Excel. It works either way. The program is very simple to run, but if you have any trouble using it, be sure to read the help provided. MACRO WARNING ------------- This program is contained in Excel as a Macro. Therefore, when you start it up, you may view a Macro warning, which Excel displays. This warning pops up because viruses have been known to reside in Excel and Word applications as Macro viruses. Since Excel cannot differentiate between a harmless Macro program and a Macro virus, it displays the warning message so that you may decide whether or not to enable the macros. If such a warning message should appear when you start up this program (which is highly probable), click on "Enable Macros" if you want the program to continue. MAKE SURE THAT YOUR COPY OF THIS PROGRAM WAS OBTAINED FROM A RELIABLE SOURCE. ABOUT THE ICON -------------- This package should include an icon. If you create a shortcut to this program, you can change the shortcut icon to the one provided.
