1-2-3 as a reference tool
Lotus 1-2-3 is my "Swiss Army Knife" of computing. I use it's list capability to keep information on the following:
- 1. Price indices for the past 25 years, containing data on: energy, labor, material, CPI, etc.
- 2. Budgets for projects, department, division.
- 3. Statistical tools I've built over the years: inventory requirements, t-tests, etc.
- 4. Market forecasts.
- 5. "Typical" business model template with Forecast, Operations, P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, Ratios, Sensitivity analysis.
- 6. My salary history and forecasting model. I have been trying to use Buddy 2.0 to link this spreadsheet up with my "1st-Things-First" DataBase so I can make accurate financial projections and create an action plan to retire ASAP.
I have several specialized DataBase files for reference use, containing information on the following:
- 1. Airline Codes for all the world's airlines, including: Full Name, IATA Code, 3-letter code, old 2-letter code.
- 2. My company's on-site representative by airline, including IATA Codes, old IATA, address code, fax, phone.
- 3. Restaurants and dining out.
- 4. Airlines' fleet for our products (jet engines) by aircraft type (expanding this to include all engines)
- 5. CompuServe access numbers.
