My boss is wanting to create a simple schedule for the Drilling Rigs in his
area. He can manually create it in Excel or Power Point for presentations-
but wants to be able to have it automated somehow - it there a simple
template in Project that might help with this task. He likes what he creates
in Excel or Power Point much better than the Gantt Charts in Project. But is
there a template in Project that might help with this....

HI,

Save a project as a .xls file and when the export wizard starts up select
the option Project Excel Template.

This stores the project with Tasks in one sheet, Resources in a second and
Assignments in a third. Yu can create your own data in this file then import
to a new project.
