Lora, thanks for the response I really appreciate it.

To answer your question -no, my school is not using any electronic grade book yet. I think they're contemplating gradeQuick.

But I guess what I'm looking for doesn't really exist. I'm not rally looking to need a PhD to use some of these programs available (excelsior gradebook2, gradeQuick, and some others). And I don't want to have to spend 20 billion dollars on these softwares that will require 8 million years for me to learn to design my own.

The reason I'm looking for a program to assist me with grade book keeping, is because I want to streamline my work, not increase my workload. I don't want to add more work for me to do. If the software isn't going to be responsive on the fly, then I can't justify using it, over good old fashion pen and paper. And it seems that there does not exist anything that can math the speed of pen and paper.

Wow, I probably sound bitter or something. Well maybe I'm a little grouchy; but not at you Lora, I appreciate the feedback. I'm just mad at myself for wasting my money on a tablet. They're useless -at doing what I want to do- and expensive.
