Well I use Excel templates for it, so if I want to set campaign option I can set them, then save it as a ready-made template.

Actually, since I'm looking at doing a serious revamp of the sheet I would like any suggestions on how to improve the interface or changes that would help (such as changing how options are applied).

I'm probably focus the design direction on being vertical. Not everyone has a wide screen monitor and vertical scrolling is easier than side-to-side.

I'd probably also sketch out the boundaries of an 8.5x11" page and try to fit everything inside it. Either that or throw off the design notes that currently live off to side onto another page and just leave what's under it blank.

For that matter, send me an email to my personal address (it's on file) and I'll send you a "paper prototype" of an idea.
