Excel tool

[Henk]

I made a simple Excel tool which can be useful for beginners as well as more experienced listeners. It works very well for me. Composers, works I want to investigate I put in the table. I give my opinion on works I've listened to and rank them. You can sort by ranking or by year composed (whatever you want) or filter on country. With a simple macro you can search on composer name quickly to get only the works by that composer. It's useful as a memory aid.

Hope it will work for anyone else too.

Couldn't attach, so you can download it here (in two formats, .xlsm for latest office version and .xls):

Maybe others already use this kind of tools. Let's share our ideas, experiences then.

Thank you for this Henk.  I got the idea of 'listening notes' from another member on this forum - the spreadsheet you made is very useful indeed, but at the moment I prefer my big alphabetically tagged book.

Thank you, Henk. This looks very useful. I was needing something as my collection is blossoming!
