Where is everyone?

[Kelsay, Brian - Kansas City, MO]

Nope, put I'm interested in using FOSS for this, keeping it simple and portable.  I need to keep it small enough to backup to pen drive and easy (straightforward) enough that anyone else could pick it up and do it if I croak.

After I got the main spreadsheet done, I tried to do a database, but it is way overkill and too much work for same result. I was dragging sheets to Base to create tables and it was a royal PITA.

I have a workbook with 50 or so tabs (sheets).  One for each boy and then a totals tab where I gather a running balance of all boys accounts for monthly reporting.

Pretty good for a guy that never had any accounting training.  I took over and everything was on ledger paper accounting sheets and you had to manually calculate everything.  PITA.
