Default Wanted: Excel Maintenance Log

So I’m feeling motivated and lazy all at the same time. Does that qualify as an oxymoron?

I’m motivated by wanting to get all my maintenance records entered into a spread sheet, but too lazy to create a good template. I’m guessing a few Rennlister’s out there have already invented this wheel and might be willing to share.

Anyone have a spreadsheet format that fits the bill?

Yeah. Almost.

In Excel. With a bunch of VB code to project scheduled maintenance. 99.9% done (like all s/w). I was going to get back to it this week to work out the last bug.

Do you want to Beta test?

OK Kurt, give me a day or three to work out the last bug and I'll send it to you. Expect a PM prior.

I don't know if I want to track how much I spent, oh wait, I do, the wife doesn't.

I'm interested also.

I had a excel sheet on my '86, that I used to keep track of maintenance etc, quit using it when at $23k the car went up in smoke. Now I just don't want to know any more, I just take the receipts and show 'em in a drawer.

FYI: This doesn't track maintenance cost. With three of these things you think I want to know how much it actually costs? No effin way

It will only track maintenance events and provide estimates of future events. Stay tuned to this thread.

Add me to the list, and I agree it is more about what you did and when than what it cost.

Dave,

How about putting it on the net and having Randy post the link up top? Appears that quite a few like myself are interested in the sheet.
