    Does anyone have an excel spread sheet template they use for writing proposals, that calculates totals. I’d be grateful if you could share one with me. Thanks

    I’ve got a simplified version of the bid I developed for my company that runs on File Maker Pro; write me off-list if you want it.

    In my opinion, a database is superior to spreadsheet for bid applications.

    Thanks for the offer Leo. I’m really looking for something that I can use in Excel to just complete quotes for projects. Any other thoughts?

    Are you asking for a listing of the items involved in production, or help in using Excel?

    Greg,
    I use this for my event video side of things: https://asvideoproductions.com/stuff/ASProductions%20-%20Price%20Calculations.exe

    If you want, I can customize one for you.

    Not sure what kind of file this is. Couldn’t open it. Also I’m very cautious about opening .exe files from anyone I don’t know. Can you show me a PDF? Thaks

    Hmm…Its an application that I developed to calculate prices. Not sure how I can create a PDF of an application. Perhaps a screenshot?

    Not really looking for a new application. Just wanted to work in Excel. Thanks anyway. I can’t believe nobody else does this!

    Most of us use programs like Quick Books or FileMaker to do this. Databases are just much better at these tasks than spreadsheets.

    That is why no one is offering an Excel spreadsheet template.
