  VERSION 5 Just released - What's new in V5

BidPoint XL, an Excel add-in program, digitizes directly into Microsoft Excel. That makes fast takeoffs even easier. No need to flip-flop back and forth between Excel and a separate digitizing application. Simply click on a spreadsheet cell and electronically measure and draw items from paper plans in seconds. The digitized quantities and drawings are saved with the Excel cell and file. BidPoint XL is so user friendly that most estimators are up and running in less than fifteen minutes.
Click for larger image. (Click for larger image.)   While working in Excel, edit, format and print the digitized drawings. Apply a variety of colors, line styles, count symbols and area fill patterns to the digitized drawings. Layer drawings to view multiple images on screen and generate a scaled, color-coded printout. You can even hear the takeoff by assigning unique sounds to each digitizing action. Sample estimating Excel workbooks for general contracting, concrete and many subtrades are included. BidPoint XL, Microsoft Excel and a digitizer tablet is all you need.

So, speed up your takeoff and make your job easier.  Call today and see how BidPoint XL can work for you.
 
If you currently have a digitizer and Microsoft Excel version 97 or newer, download a working copy of BidPoint XL and test drive its ease of use.

After downloading and installing, please view the BidPointXL.hlp file for instructions about installing and configuring the digitizer.
