BidMagic and Compression Software

Problem

is BidMagic estimating software compatible with AutoDoubler, DiskDoubler, Optimem, RAM Doubler, etc.? Compression software?

Diagnosis

Currently HC 2.1 is NOT fully compatible with those programs- strange errors may result. So BidMagic Construction Estimating Software is not compatible either.

Solution

Compression programs usually allow you to specify that certain files or folders NOT be auto-compressed. Best thing would be to turn OFF auto-compression for the entire BidMagic folder. As long as user stores all his bids somewhere in BM folder, it'll be ok.

RAM-doubling programs generally allow you to NOT use them on some programs. Make sure they aren't working with BidMagic and problems should disappear.

NOTE-- We retired BidMagic estimating software back in 2002, and replaced with Goldenseal-- which is integrated estimating software and project management software (plus optional accounting software).
