ODS
The budget form is available in an Excel 2007 template or in an open source template. There is important information on how to open and work with the Excel template in the Instructions for applicants. The minimum requirement for Mac users is Office 2004. A known problem for Mac users is that the drop-down menu in column B of the 'Detailed budget by activities' part of the budget form does not appear. As no technical solution for this problem is available for now, we provide the list of values for this field in the first sheet called 'Content of the budget' of the budget form.
