Additional changes to the Summary Model Data window resulting in the following corrections:
The Pretax Subtotal Sales Price is correctly calculated when changing the Model
Gross Margin, Price Markup, List Discount, or Dealer Override.
When changing the Tax Rate, the resulting Total Sales Price is instantly displayed.
Entering numbers into the Taxable Materials Sales Price was not formatting them
properly, by placing the cursor to the left of the dollar sign. Corrected.
09/14/01 Version 2.0.27
A major rewrite of the Summary Model Data window resulting in the following changes:
Selecting a model now instantly displays the Dealer cost. The
data was there, but not displayed until the cursor hit it.
Various fields were not refreshing the results after a value was changed. Now corrected.
Subtotals, tax values, and final totals were being rounded off with some loss in accuracy.
Now corrected.
Some of the subtotals could be made to not add up to the column values above. Corrected.
Better handling of gross margins and price markups, especially when list price was not defined.
The order in which the cursor moves on the General Project Data window/Company Data
tab when pressing the Tab key has been corrected.
Clicking on the Help menu, followed by clicking on Elite Software on the Web,
and selecting Free Software Demos. An obsolete web page was displayed, but it is
now pointing to the updated web page. The same is true for selecting the News Room link.

Increased the row height of the Edit/Add Materials database screen,
because sometimes if it is too narrow in height, you cannot select a field
to edit.
Add prompt to confirm when user selects to clear (delete) material
checklists.
FYI, not a program change - the list of "material checklists" in the
Select Material Costs screen is divided into two sections, one being a list
of all the checklists the user has created, and the other being the most
recently selected material checklists (for user convenience). No changes
here, but a user wanted a better explanation about what this was.
When user changes the quantity of a material, it instantly changes the
cost values.
04/25/01 Version 2.0.24
Modified procedures that determine if data has changed to ensure that in
all cases where it has changed, it will be saved. Thanks Bob!

changing the labor gross margin. Thanks for the heads up, Darrell!
We just added a confirmation question to the Clear button on labor costs
screen, to allow you to abort the clear function and avoid losing the
entered labor data.
If no accessories are specified, then the accessory report page will not
be printed, even if they option had been previously checked (like the user
selected some accessories and then removed them). Requested by Vadim.
Program no longer locks up if the project explorer is opened with more
than 100 project files.
Added part number column to installer's report.
02/27/01 Version 2.0.23
Quote has been tested to make sure it works with Word 2000, as it did with
Word 97. Also enlarged (and re-wrote) the selection field for it in the
Report Options screen, so it would be easier to find and select.
On Select Materials screen, the Clear button was close to the Search
button. If you accidently pressed the Clear button, all your selected
materials would be "de-selected". We just added a confirmation question to
the Clear button, to allow you to abort the clear function and avoid losing
the selections.
On Select Materials screen, "Material list" has been renamed to "Material
Checklist", as it had been for the DOS version of Quote. This will help
distinguish it from the entire material list as a point of confusion.
The Accessory page can now be turned off.
Program won't lock up if missing logo file, both in the splash screen and
the About box.
11/17/00 Version 2.0.22
Program was updated to be able to import the latest versions
of the RHVAC project files.

screen, control will not be wreasted from GPD to Summary. Also, there will
not be the occasional screen flicker one user reported. Also, if you
changed the default database in GPD, it will only appear in the Summary
screen if you clear that field. Previously it always overwrote the database
name.

"quotesupport@elitesoft.com"

Save material database name with each project, use it as default at load
time.

8/12/99 Version 2.0.18
In the General Project Data screen, if the user blanks out the default equipment
database name, Quote inserts the same hvac equipment file as RHVAC, CHVAC and AUDIT
specify as the default database in the WIN.INI.
In the General Project Data screen, Quote no longer allows the entry "*.MDB" as a
selection for the default equipment file.
Changed the phrase "Default Database:" to "Default Equipment File:" in General
Project Data screen.
When changing the Material database name, and the user has already selected
materials(takeoffs), we now warn user of losing already selected items.
If there is an error while opening a different material database, Quote returns
to the previous good one, if there was one.
