I used to do the same thing in DOS. It is a lot of work to set up and
maintain accurate records in a spreadsheet, and in the end, not nearly
as useful. Ever notice how the bookkeeping software is relational
database based, not spreadsheet based. It makes it easier to maintain a
"one-write" system with flexible reporting and data views.
I'm not big on "return on investment" analysis that marketers use to
sell you something you didn't think you needed, but switching from my
pretty decent "Checkbook Register and Balancer" spreadsheet to
QuickBooks was an easy decision.
