For a very simple in & out tracking program, try VT cash book which is free - can be downloaded from:-

http://www.vtsoftware.co.uk/cashbook/index.htm

Far better than a spreadsheet - will keep your bank account reconciled and also produce simple P&L and balance sheet as well as VAT returns.

If you need to track monies owed and oweing as well, you're definitely out of the scope of a simple spreadsheet - VT do an excellent full book-keeping system with sales & purchase ledgers (cash book's big brother) for around £100 one off payment - again downloadable from their website.

If you aren't good at writing and editing the formulae etc in a spreadsheet, and of course knowing the fundamentals of book-keeping, control accounts, please don't go there - you'll waste a lot of time and risk getting things wrong with a cobbled together home made spreadsheet.

VT is very simple, quick to input, and produces everything a small business needs.

Hi Patrick

If you are looking after your own bookkeeping and want something which produces a P&L which is free and really easy to use this might be better than a spreadsheet -
