Default where do i start?

I know it's kind of tough to put something that's new on several levels into
words, but like gls858 said - if you'll tell us something about the 'what'
side of it, we may be able to make recommendations.

Excel opens a new workbook with 3 new, empty sheets by default. That
doesn't mean you have to use them all, and you can always add more if you
need them.

I think a big part of getting started with this would be for you to tell us
exactly what these parking identification forms are going to be used for. If
they are for something like giving people who park there an ID of some kind
to put on their dashboard, then it may be that another application like Word
might be the tool. But if you're trying to keep up with information about
cars that come in for parking and want to keep up with license number, time
in, time out (and thus time to be charged for) along with where the car was
put, for use by your parking attendants, then Excel could be just the thing.

Tell us what you want to use this for, and what information you need to
collect and keep and we'll give it a go.
