I've made some printable tab paper for my own use and thought I'd share.
You'll need Excel or Excel Viewer.
It's a music staff with a 10 string tab.
Set your top and bottom margins low and you'll get four per page.
It's at www.pedalsteel.tv

Very good, Joe.
However one thing, why did you use a spreadsheet to do a form??? This is just one of the things I've been hung up for years with. No slam on you. I see people do forms, wordprocessing tasks, database tasks, etc all with a spreadsheet and in a way everything but a spreadsheet task.
I installed Office 2000 on a client's office PC about 6 months ago. Last week they ask me to come by as they had some questions. One questions was about their inventory list and it was on Excel instead of Access (they are now coverting their inventory to Access after I set up an inventory program (format) for them and demonstrated how items could be found or sorted using Access). |

Well Jack,
It was just the most convienent way I could see at the time.
The spreadsheet program had the cells (lines) built it.
There's many ways to skin a cat, Gary Moorse said so at the Grand Rapids seminar.

Thanks, just curious as to why you used it.
Like I said, nothing negative just "inquiring minds ask".....

Thanks. I'm going to try this.
I find tabbing in Word completely frustrating as well. So this may work better. |

I like that, except I prefer a line on the top making for 10 spaces instead of 9. I find it easier to read. |

| Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can convert an Excel-based inventory into Access by simply doing a cut-and-paste. Is this correct? |

Thanks for the good words.
This is the TAB format I perfer.
If you want something else feel free to modify my file. It's sort-of easy. I don't want to do it because it's taking away time I could be practicing.
I'm not an Excel Guru. If you need advice on how to do it ask over on the COMPUTERS section.
When you have a format you like, feel free to email it to me. I'll gladly post it on www.pedalsteel.tv for others to use.
