Default How do I use Excel for a Univ. level course scheduling tool?

Not to discourage you but Excel works best for manipulating numbers. What you
are wanting to do is better suited to a database. Just my 2 cents...

I'm interested to know if others have used Excel as a course/time scheduling
tool at a University department level that shows times, days, instructor,
course overlaps. For instance, several courses are taught at the same time,
but all need to visibly show to identify areas of conflict. The end goal is
to have a grid type of printout that shows all courses, regardless of
recurring times. I've checked some of the other dedicated time scheduling
software applications on the web, but they are too intense to use, and are
not what I'm looking for.
