Using Excel to inventory your collection
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum mods!

I wanted to find a way to keep inventory on all my MAC, since I'm a MA and I like knowing what I have, how many, and especially, the total cost (for tax/business purposes). I downloaded excel, and I had no trouble listing everything and the prices from the MAC website, but the actual coding/spreadsheet functions got me lol... I'm definitely not an accountant. After a couple internet searches on how to do a few things, I created a working spreadsheet that keeps track of all my MAC, and the total cost of my collection.

If anyone is interested, PM me and I will email you mine as a sample, and you can just change all the items and stuff with your collection


I thought I'd share, since people here recommend excel, but no one has really explained how to use it


I hope this helps someone

Re: Using Excel to inventory your collection
LOL...

Awesome. I told my local MA that I used excel to keep track of my MAC and she looked at me funny. Glad to see there are other nerds around...
