Is there a way to use the computer to manage finances?

I would like to eliminate using my checkbook register and start keeping track of my finances on my home computer. Are there any programs that will add and subtract deposits and withdrawls for me? Like where I can start by what is in my checkbook and just like writing it down in my register log I do it all on the computer instead. I have Microsoft Office 2007 but Im not sure on how to use any of the programs yet. If you could suggest one to that would help. Thanks in advance.

1. Get "quicken" or microsoft money
2. you can make your own spreadsheet in excel2007... its easy to use... to give you a hint on how to do this, just open your excel program (this is included in your office2007)... if you want all your deposits to column A, then all your withdrawals to your column B... all you have to do is to input there all the amounts base on your transaction... then if you want to see the result on how much money you have, if you want to see it for example in column C with row 1, just type there =SUM(A:A)-SUM(B:B) and you will see the result... if you want to have more details like dates, etc... you can move it to different columns... hope this helps you...
3. You could use Excel to create a spreadsheet to keep track of you checkbook register entries. If you bank online most downloads are in Excel or PDF formats.
