It appears that some tenderers are having trouble with the Part D Response Schedules with some tabs being unable to enter responses. I have uploaded an addendum file of another version of the document for those that need it. The only change on this document is the cells reported on tabs 5/6/7/8 have been unprotected and reprotected to allow data to be entered for those that are having difficulties. If this causes any issues, please let me know.
