which template can I use to organize my game inventory?
G Gord Dibben Dec 26, 2004 #2 Visit the Microsoft Template Gallery. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/default.aspx I think you will find that most of the inventory-type templates use MS Access as the application of choice. You may be able to modify one of the Excel templates to your liking. The "book collection" template may a place to start. Gord Dibben Excel MVP

D Dave Peterson Dec 27, 2004 #4 If it's more complex than you want, why not just build your own. Put headers in Row 1 (alt-enter will allow more than one line within the cell). Put each game in separate rows. Try to put one piece of information in one cell. Manufacturer Game_Name Date_Bought Amount$ Loaned_Date Loaned_To And whatever else you want to keep track of. Apply data|filter|autofilter to the range so that you can filter by any field. And backup your workbook often.
