Q: After using software for a few days, I am now getting a request for an Excel password. As far as I know, I never set one up.

A: The software allows you to give it a test run for seven days after which you need to purchase a license to continue use. When you purchase a license you are sent Registration Details to input into the software. Some sections of the software do include excel password protection and this is an integral component of the processing. You should not need to unprotect or change any Excel password it is controlled by the programming. If it is altered the programming may not be able to access the required sections. If Excel passwords have been accidentally altered you may need to reinstall the software to restore the software to its initial state.

Q: I purchased this program and used it to do a budget for 2003. What I would like to do is a comparison from 2003 to 2004 Can this be done if so could you please let me how.

A: You cannot overlay following years but the budget will handle up to 5 consecutive years so you can simply extend your 2003 budget onto 2004. If you check Variation for the year on the input sheet it will show the difference between years but the graph will not overlay years only plot over the full time frame.

Q: You are amazing. I have never seen a software provider caring about the end users and inviting their comments. I am a consultant and I want to know if your product could be used beyond budget compilation in QB. In QB when you create reports with comparison to previous month and previuos period, the % shows only for the current month in selection. Argument sake, if I send this report to CSV format, eliminate % coulmn, and pull in your program, will I be able to insert the % columns for the missing periods? Truly appreciate your input and help.

A: The Budget Compiler basically loads the csv file into a formatted sheet. This includes preset display functions one of which is Percentages. If you select percentages and Update View percentages for each line item by month will be displayed. There are also an array of additional display options that can be selected. It is also possible to simply copy the displayed P and L to a new workbook and add any specific details you desire ie comparisons etc. Thanks for the feedback.
