Contract Import from BidMagic

PRoblem

import of specs from BidMagic screws up--
doesn't get right items
doesn't do correct code number in MacNail contract writing software

Diagnosis

This is a combination of two bugs. In MAC and DOS both.
Easiest fix is to send latest SpecWriter disk.

Solution

1. Go to cell A102. Should say import.columns
2. Choose Define Name from Formula menu. Type in import.columns as the name (no spaces). Click OK.
3. Go to cell A105. Can hit down arrow three times to get there.
4. Formula starts =IF(import.type=4,SET.NAME("source.code.col",8)...
Change that to =IF(import.type=4,SET.NAME("source.code.col",11)...
5. Hit the Enter key.
6. Goto cell A1.
7. Choose Save from the File menu.
