Thank you...
OK, excel, easier to copy time columns too....One thing I've never figured
out in Excel...how to make sure that my design will fit on a page...Excel
seems to change the shape of it.....in Printshop you're given a "page" size
work area.....so I know what I do had better fit that.....does Excel have a
feature for that? It must, I can't find what it is called....
can I chose the color the grid prints in Excel? I didn't think so.....

If I were doing this myself, just for printing (and I probably wouldn't
bother), I might start with Excel, and modify the existing grid. So you
might also check Excel templates, should be on the same site.
Re changing the date, I would probably use Fill Series in Excel to create a
list of all the days in a year, and then use the Data Merge function in Word
to generate 365 copies of the grid in a new document, each with the
appropriate day filled in.
But you might also just google for calendar programs, and see if anything
turns up that seems to do what you want. Not sure if there are any out
there.

The question is can I do this in Word, is there a templet? I don't have the
knowledge to begin and don't know where to start.

You seem to have defined the problem and worked out the solution, so I'm not

...
every year I run around looking for an aoppointment book to fit the hours
I
work (usually use week at-a-glance but I really need a full Sat and Sun
day
schedule).
I have printshop21....but the idea of putting a time at every line and
copy
that to each day...plus it won't let me print to the edge of the page (new
version may).
I need to make a grid, have thicker and thinner lines to sep. hours and
1/4
hour segments and make the lines in shades of grey (something else I can't
do
in PS)...if the time spent changing each columns date will be OK in light
of
having a book fit to my needs (I say so now anyway)....
I imagine I can have it set in a spiral at Kinkos or something....
can I do this in Word? or is there a better program for it.....
