Clearing Estimator Line Items

NOTE-- We retired the MacNail estimating program in 2000, and replaced it with Goldenseal construction estimating software. There are still a significant number of die-hard MacNail users, so we keep the manuals online for them! Goldenseal is an integrated program that also includes accounting, scheduling and contract writing features. It's easy to remove or clear any line items in a Goldenseal Estimate.

Clearing Construction Line Items

If you would like to 'erase' some lines in Specifications and leave blank rows in their place (rather than deleting them), select any cells in the desired row or rows, then choose Clear Rows from the Edit menu.

NOTE: The MacNail construction management software will not allow you to clear any of the title rows in Specifications.

All information in the rows (except for the calculation formulas) will be cleared, so you'll be able to add new items as described in the following section.
