GTD on Excel

[Pascal Venier]

I am currently looking at revising the template I use to implement GTD
on Devonthink, by making good use of the new sheet function of the
software.

I would therefore be very interested in learning more about existing
set ups which have made use of excel spreadsheets for this purpose.

Looking on google I came, among other things, accross references to
something called e-dashboard but the links I found seem to be no longer
working.

This might take more effort than you are interested in investing, but
possibly...

If you have access to a Windows PC, you may want to look at MyLife
Organized, because MLO's database files can be exported to excel XML
format. MLO has a couple variations of GTD templates integrated into
the trial version.

I use Excel to implement GTD. It's all about the tabs.

First tab - Next actions
Second tab - Projects
Third tab - Waiting for
Fourth tab - Someday / Maybe

Make the first column in each sheet really wide, and then just list one
thing per row. Voila G.T.D from F.R.E.E. (esp if you use a freeware
spreadsheet).

Hello Pascal,

Here is my answer to the same on

You are right : Steve tells he moved it to his blog, but his blog is
empty (but provider adds). As he doesn't say anything against
distribution, here is my 2002 copy of E-DashboardR2 (pdf manual
included) :
