And what all do you put in it?

Ditto.

Could you send me a file with it in there so I can see how to set it up?

Sorry, my schedule books don't have any kids.

Thanks Mick, this will help me as well.

There are some real ones out here, set up by forum members, but I merely use the KISS system so I can retrieve what I need.

I use the one that Honig's sells. I have used it ever since I started officiating 10 years ago, and I really like it as it is easy to use, carry, and contains enough space to write all the needed information that I use for each game that do.

I use excel and have another table that has my mileage listed per school. After I've been to a school once and have measured the mileage, I don't ever have to do it again unless I move. When I enter the school name, it looks up the name in the other table and fills in the mileage.

In addition, I use outlook for scheduling. I enter the games on my outlook caledar (directly exported from <A HREF=http://www.RefTown.com>RefTown.com</A> (<em> gotta plug my site where it shines </em> ;) ) and can see all of them with full game details in outlook (and on the road trough my Pocket PC).

I keep my schedule in three places:

1) Microsoft Outlook Calendar. I also use this as an officiating diary. Among the things that I keep in the notes of each entry are: teams, partners, game fee, meals, motels, mileage (including the acutal odometer readings), anything unusual that happened in the game (ejections and such), laundry, uniform and equipment purchases, telephone calls, etc.

2) Sharp YO-520 Electronic Organizer. I carry this with me everywhere. I can exchange information between it and the Outlook Calendar. I keep this up to date so that when I am asked if I am open or closed on a certain date I can give a definite answer immediately.

3) My wife helped me develope an Excel spreadsheet that is nothing more that a Schedule C in spreadsheet form. The lines of the Schedule C go from left to right and the days of the year go from top to bottom. On January 01st, I just push a button and every line for the previous year is summed up and I transfer the numbers to the appropriate line on the Schedule C.

My wife and I received the last of our W2's on Saturday, Jan. 31st. During the the Super Bowl's (February 01st) halftime show (we missed the Janet Jackson show) my wife and I used the H&R Block online software to file both our Ohio and US income tax returns. We received our state refund on Fri., Feb. 06th, and our US refund on Fri., Feb. 13th, both via direct deposit. It was the easiest and fastest we had ever had our taxes done.

I know this is not a computer help place but do you know if i create one on excel can i put a password to it so you have to have a password in it?

Yes, you can. A good password to use is TECHNICAL.

Do you know how?
