Default Excel based logbook available?

Does anyone have an "Excel based" logbook that they can forward to me. I've
tried to find the ones that were available previously, and have done google
searches to no avail. Specifically, I'm looking for one that keeps track of
night, IFR, passenger currency. Thank you.

That would take a casual user of Excel about 15 minutes to set up. Why not
spend your time doing that instead of googling?

Neil,
You're correct. I do in fact have one that I created a few years ago that
I've been using. I have the totals, and charts, etc., however, evidently,
I'm too casual a user, as I don't know how to manipulate dates, and do the
date currency portion of the log book. I realize that I could go buy a book,
or such, but I was hoping that some kind soul could forward me a copy of
their spreadsheet, so that I could learn from it.

Some of us were keeping logs in spreadsheets back to the early 80's (some
probably earlier). I did my first log book in dBase shortly after I started
flying in 1984. It's now in Access and has some right snazzy entry screens
and reports. The tables link to the aircraft log information database.

Date manipulation should take you 10 minutes to learn.

Do you have a copy (empty of course) that you would like to share?

Garmin has a download called flightlog. You can export it to excel and it
will create your sheet for you.
