Its only a basic program which took 10 minutes to set up, but it can be added to with Access or Word to enhance it further.

I believe we should all help each out (what goes around comes around)

[Matt Read]

can i be a pain and ask for the program too william,be much appreciated 

[Steve Weatherley]

William. Congratulations your excel spreadsheet is proving to be a hit! I have pm'd you

[strakercleaning]

Hi Chris

I have just been viewing your Website, may I ask " What is the discreet service that you provide??".

[Simon Green]

would it be possible for me to have a copy?

[williamx]

Sorry folks but I've had so much interest in this software that its taking up so much time that I thought I earn a penny or two .

So I have enhanced it further than the ones I've sent out for free and have put it on ebay for a modest fee of £5.99

I think the qoute has to be presented in a logical manor Giving the benifits of the service for the price charged.

It does not look like this when you see the product on a spredsheet layout, by cutting and pasting it has shrunk all the figures together.

[Paul Phillips]

William,

Send me a copy of the spreadsheet and I'll have a lpay with it and format into an Access Database.

In a former life I have done quite alot of this.
Excel is OK, but you have to lock cells and hide them to make it more user friendly. In essence Access is very similar, but you can put on a front and back end. Basically the customer will see the front end and where you are putting the details in, when you want to present the quote, the printed report - either on screen or piece of paper - just shows the information they need.

Things like levels of service can be pointed out on the 'report' and you can explain them or offer another listing separate to the quote as additional information.

Makes things ALOT tidier and more presentable to a customer - obviously giving a good impression of a professional outfit.

I went on the discovery day too, and apart from the marketing stuff AND training, most of what they give you can do for yourself.
I am NOT knocking Alltec, far from it - they gave me some excellent ideas which I have put into practise. The quote system is something I intended to do, but been a bit busy recently. So William, send me what you've got and I'll sort out the Access side.
You can sell it on Ebay if you want, all I ask is for a 99% cut 

Paul
