    A spreedsheet? You been watching repeats of Allo Allo?

    A Fantasy Portfolio is what you want. Try Fastrade. I think it provides a free FP if you register. If not someone will be along to recommend a free service.

    You could have a look at Google Finance plus Google documents. These are free.

    I was looking for a free spreadsheet last night as the portfolio I use (Trustnet) seems to have developed a glitch and will not let me add something in the right place so I have decided to download it all to a decent spread sheet.

    Microsoft have one but you I think it is part of their Money software which is not free.

    You could just Google for "Free spreadsheets" and see what comes up.

    Just set up a portfolio on somewhere like:

    http://www.trustnet.com/

    or:

    https://www.iii.co.uk/

    much easier and better than a spreadsheet.

    Agree, one of the free online portfolio tools would be far easier than manually updating a spreadsheet yourself - there's loads to choose from, in addition to those listed already: yahoo finance, bull bearings, digitallook, timetotrade, morningstar; timetotrade is handy for reviewing your performance as you can change the portfolio valuation date so see the value of your positions on any date in the past.
