reading through a few of the old posts I noticed how feverishly everyone jumps up and down whenever a spreadsheet is mentioned.
Over the years I have been involved in a few sports online and have always used good old Excel to keep all my stats and even to hold the html code for web pages so that all I have to do is copy the spreadsheet page and upload it onto the net.
I dont use spreadsheets for racing because the few methods of selection I use are so pathetically simple all I have to do is look up a form guide - no calculation is needed, thankfully :smile:
But as I have become a spreadsheet fanatic I love to see other peoples efforts - I like to see the codes and formulas they use, I like to see the different lay outs people come up with.
And I am sure many of you are in the same boat - you love to look and learn from others efforts.
So to make a long story even longer...
...
1. is there anyway we can create a repository of spreadsheets for those who want to give us all a look at their ideas rather than having us all post a "me too" message to the forum and
2. if anyone has any spreadsheet efforts they are proud of and want to show off to a fellow Excel aficianado I am happy to receive ... you can email me at et@tpg.com.au
3. and if any of you have nifty Excel tricks you want to share in this forum, I invite you to step forward since knowing a few shortcuts etc can make ones spreadsheeting more effective - which might help the race selection process for many of you.
I should point out its not really your betting or selection systems I am after, but rather how you use your spreadsheet that is of interest. Especially those who use graphs and advanced features.
see ya
