CP-L2-07 Using Auto-Complete in Vico Office.wmv

Another way to access previously created content in your firm's BIM projects is to use the Auto-Complete feature in Vico Office. Just as the Google search bar recognizes the phrase you are trying to type to help you hone in on exact language, so too does this feature in Vico Office.

The process begins the same as the other videos in this section. We first need a default Reference Project from which to cull our possible codes and materials.

In the Cost Plan view, we need to select our auto-complete feature from either the Reference Project, from our Current Project, or both. Now we can type a three character start into the cell and the system will offer us all the possible ways to complete the Code numbering or the material name.

There are much more important areas to focus your estimating efforts - memorizing codes and materials is not one of them. To watch the complete set of Cost Planner level two video tutorials, please follow the link... http://www.vicosoftware.com/products/cost-planner/level-two-cost-planner-tuto...
