OK, will someone spill the beans and explain how you do these spread sheets to show how your readings are :? . I'm sort of ish on a computer but i work in a school and i could always ask some one to help me from the ICT department if i know how to start it off from the basics :? .

PLEASE HELP ???????????????????

I was thinking of creating one myself, as I'm pretty confident with MS Excel.

Unless anyone has one pre-made?
 
Hi,
Have you tried ACCU-CHEK Compass? It's free software (designed for their products, but I suspect you can use the manual function for other makes). This records in diary form your blood glucose levels with graphs and other functions.
It works with Vista - but some of the functionality is lost. Better on XP.
Good luck
 
I have a spreadsheet that I use, that I'd be willing to share. I promise it's not that complicated to use :)

What spreadsheet program are you using?
 
Otherwise, I don't know if it is what you're looking for, but have you tried using Diabetes.co.uk's own online: myLifestyle? It's only in Beta version but may do what you want?
 
Has anyone used Diabetes pilot or any other good software that can do lovely graphs and stuff?

I like the look of Pilot and you can put it on your handhelp IPAQ aswell for when your away from your PC. Then synchronise it later.

Any thoughts? Or does anyone know of any free ones that are good?
 
Mine is basic, just has loads of columns but has carbs in as well if you pm me your email I will happily save a blank copy for you and send it over to you. you will then have a few to play with. It doesn't do graphs etc but if you played with it you could.

I tend to print out a blank for the month which I fill in manually rather than the book and then I update it on my pc when I have time.

Thanks for all the replies, i've got the "optimum exceed" meter sarahQ. I might try what you said and ring the company and i'll also contact you TROUBR for the graph you use as well :)

many thanks

I have a cable for my daughters Exceed and the program, it does everything you could wish for.
When you phone up the company ask for a USB cable as they sent me one with a serial port on and I could not get it to work. After phoning the cable arrived the next day. I have phoned them 3 or 4 times now and they have been the most helpful company I have ever phoned.
 
I have a spread sheet I was using for a while. In the end it drives you crazy as you're trying to find sugar/bolus sugar/basal sugar/time patterns that often just aren't visible.
