You are welcome.
I've spent more time then most analyzing bid proposals.
I don't know whether Excel now makes it easier or not.

I do have a overwrought and never used Purchase
Analysis Program (workbook) that I wrote years ago.
It includes the cost of carrying inventory in making the buy decision.
Maybe somebody reading this would like to fight with it. <g
