    - Appointment book...how to design in Word2003 every year I run around looking for an aoppointment book to fit the hours I work (usually use week at-a-glance but I really need a full Sat and Sun day schedule). I have printshop21....but the idea of putting a time at every line and copy that to each day...plus it won't let me print to the edge of the page (new version may). I need to make a grid, have thicker and thinner lines to sep. hours and 1/4 hour segments and make the lines in shades of grey (something else I can't do in PS)...if the time spent changing each columns date will be OK in light of having a book fit to my needs (I say so now anyway).... I imagine I can have it set in a spiral at Kinkos or something.... can I do this in Word? or is there a better program for it..... Tag: inches instead of pts Tag: 93222
