I also make sport spreadsheets for fun, my last was to keep a record of EUFA World Cup qualifying games (http://cid-b6212155f8f699d3.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Files%204%20U/World%20Cup%202010%20European%20Qualifiers%20Unprotected%20Version.xls). My next project is a spreadsheet for the actual 2010 World Cup. I came to your site looking for a spreadsheet that would allow me to enter some scores and test some NFL Playoff scenarios, but could find nothing (yet). I don't have Windows 7 but from the positive comments I have been hearing it won´t be long before I move over to it. Does the calculator have a graphic function too? Keep up with the good work.

I'm currently deployed to Iraq and our office has an office pool for this season. I was hoping to improve on the current pen and paper method, and would like to have some freedom in adding my own touches to the background programming, perhaps with some macros. How much would it be to get an unlocked version? Stu,
