Reloading/Spreadsheet
The last time I took a class on Microsoft Excel was circa 2000. Usually, spreadsheets were already created for the Eng Dept., where I worked, so I mostly just "filled in the blanks" rather than designing my own. Needless to say, that was a perishable skill, and I can't remember "jack" about it.
I was hoping someone might tell me where I can find a template for reloaders, where I can enter data from my Chronograph, that can be entered into a spreadsheet. Actually, I could just label cells and enter data, such as FPS, BC, SD, Extreme Spread, etc, but I was hoping I could find something that was set up to make calculations and store info such as OAL, temp, etc, right in the spreadsheet for analysis.
There used to be a really nice one in the public domain, that I used several years ago, but can't find it now.
If anyone can help me locate a template for this data, I'd really appreciate it. I don't mind buying something not in the "public domain", if it's not too expensive.
Thanks,

Thanks, Ride4frnt. That would have been great, but it would only allow me to view it in protected mode. I couldn't actually save it as a file, open it in Excel, and manipulate the data. I suppose there's something in Excel, that let's you protect your work, and not let others manipulate the data.
I do really and sincerely appreciate the effort to help, though.

Reloading/Spreadsheet
Here's the page I took it from. If you right click it and save file as and open it there should be a way to get out of read-only mode. Not exactly sure of the process without a computer in front of me, but I know for a read only word document there's a dialog box at the top of the page that says enable editing.

Eta: what version of excel are you using? There's definitely a way to be able to edit it.

PM me your email Address and I can send you the spreadsheet I use. Although I print these out and hand jam them, making dated notes and corrections as I go.

Hey FortTom...
My wife (computer geek) made a fillable excel spreadsheet for myself and 11B that I had her copy from the Ultimate Reloader reloading site:

Hope this is what you were looking for?

FT,
I sent two excel sheets to your inbox: one is what MCA mentioned and the other is more advanced with internal calculations that average a velocity spread and can be copied and altered respectively for other data

FT, If you have not received what you need, PM me with the cell layouts (row headings and column headings) and what formulae you want in them, and I will build it for you.
