["Roger Kozol" <rkozol@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Most timesheet systems will cost several hundred to several thousand 
dollars, are generally aimed at larger firms, need some customization, and 
still leave the problem of compliance and enforcement.  No matter how good 
the program is, if everyone involved does not use it consistently and 
accurately, the information will not be useful.

With a small firm, you can get excellent results from an Excel spreadsheet 
customized to your needs and save yourself a bundle.
