Thanks, Stingray, for taking the time to do this. :)

Nice of you, Stinagray....,

Thanks Stingray for being so helpful to everyone on this site.

That is really so nice of you Stingray, really appreciate this and really waiting for it!! thanks once again :)

i'm very excited about this. i'll happily be a beta tester :)

I would be happy to beta test.

When will you release the final version? I'm a bit technologically challenged:-)

@I Think: The current test version has been in use for a few weeks now by others and no-one currently seems to be having any problems - so it seems pretty stable. There are a few minor bug fixes to go in but nothing important...and the upgrade process is pretty straightforward anyway. I'd probably still want to keep it as a test version for a while yet just to be on the safe side but I don't see any reason why you couldn't try it out the test version now if you wanted

Hello Stingray, the current spreadsheet seems to allow you to only add vibrational matches to a particular topic. Is it ok to just create a separate sheet to include all vibrational matches together cause sometimes it is too much trouble to find the specific block to add in the vibrational match ?

@kakaboo - Yes, one combined Vibrational Matches list is fine. In that sheet, there is the option to "Add Miracle" from any sheet which is just a generic vibrational match.

@Stingray thank you very much. i cannot express how grateful i am that you made this spreadsheet available. i have benefited greatly from your knowledge on this site and would like to thank you under each and every post that you have written on IQ. but i don't want to push all old topics to the first page:). thank you for all your help!

@releaser99 - You're very welcome. That spreadsheet is still one of the most useful and powerful vibrational tools I've yet come across - I'd almost be lost without it. I'm actually in the process of creating a web-based (and even more powerful) version of it - so people won't need to use Microsoft Excel, just a web browser. Hopefully, it will be up and running sometime in 2013...don't ask me exactly when though :)

@Stingray i can completely understand why this spreadsheet means so much to you. i too felt the power of it. Because most of the time i work at my laptop, the focus spreadsheet runs all day long. If some issue pops up i take a few minutes to make a new focus block. Then i write at least 1-2 statements to feel relief and go on with work. it's a godsend. I'm looking forward to the web-based spreadsheet. Do you plan to make the manifesting spreadsheet with the abraham's others processes available?

@releaser99 - If there's any other processes in there, it won't be for any early version. I did used to have a spreadsheet that contained most of the processes but I stripped them out for simplicity when I released the public Excel version. I've found over the years that the "Big 3" processes of Focus Wheels/Blocks, Positive Aspects and Rampage of Appreciation reliably cover nearly all of the emotional scale and I rarely used the other processes - I'm talking about daily Vortex entry here.

Hello Stingray. I wanted to offer my help to develop the web-based version of the spreadsheet if you are open to it. I'm a software developer with javascript experience and have some experience with google spreadsheet API.

I don't know if you were going to use google or not, but anyway I can help. If you're not using google, then I can give a hand migrating it too if needed.

Thanks for all your contributions.

Sorry, forgot to tag you @Stingray (see comment above).

@Kriegerd - I've put the web-based idea on hold for now because it's a lot of effort for very few interested people :) Instead, I've just carried on adding more and more features to the existing Excel spreadsheet which, in conjunction with a cloud-based storage service like Dropbox, achieves a similar "do it anywhere" (with a PC) effect - for zero extra effort :) The sheet relies on some complex Excel VBA macros and wouldn't be directly portable to G-Sheets in any case. Thanks for offering.

@Stingray - Does the Excel-based spreadsheet work on Open Office? I have not been able to try this until now, because my computer was at work. Now I'm at home, I would love to try to use this. I did try, but it crashed. Just wondered if you have any advice. I downloaded Focus Blocks Spreadsheet - Beta 3. Thanks so much. :)

@Grace I don't think the focus block spreadsheet works with Open Office due to the macros.

@Liam - Ya, I'm finding that out. Bummer. :( I was so excited for a minute there. Do you use it? Do you like it?

@Grace Yes. His latest version is particularly good. But for the last couple of months I haven't touched it at all and have just been using pad and pen. There's just something satisfying to me doing it that way.

I second that, I love the pen and paper method too.Something rather cathartic about actually writing stuff down.

@Liam and @Monty - Thanks for that. You are reminding me, I don't get on my computer every day, but I do need to do my FBs every day. I also like the feeling of writing - of paper. Seems more solid, more permanent, somehow. I still read paper books! :) BTW really good to see you are still around, @Liam.

@Grace Thank you. :) Yep still around, just haven't felt inspired to post much lately. Hehe, I love paper books too. I clocked a lot of time over a few years sitting in Borders reading while waiting to meet someone...and then they went out of business lol. I had no idea what to do with myself while waiting then!

@Stingray This is partly an excuse to give this great tool a bit of publicity but I am wondering whether this man has your sunglasses? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VsX6CZNwDY

@Catherine - They Live is one of my favorite movies. Seen it many times over the years. I have my doubts that John Carpenter (the writer/director) deliberately intended it to be such a prophetic metaphor of the world we live in today...and yet it is :)

@Stingray I suppose that was the era of the Yuppie/Greed is Good so maybe more of a comment about that but it is certainly a powerful clip - can't wait to see the film.

Hi @Stingray, quick question about adding positive aspects to the spreadsheet. Suppose I have a PA on my car. Do you recommend that I leave the statements about my car that I wrote in the past in the spreadsheet and just shuffle and re-read them the next time it comes up, or write at least one new statement every time it comes up? What if I run out of good things to write about my car? Thanks.

@cod2 - These days I only make it compulsory to add statements to Focus Blocks (and obviously the Rampage of Appreciation needs statements, by definition). Everything else I consider to be optional - so that includes Touchstones, Virtual Realities, Positive Aspects. That's because those latter processes are more about hanging around in an already-good-feeling place until you are granted vibrational access to reach further up the emotional scale, and then eventually into the Vortex itself.

Thanks, @Stingray. With regards to Focus Blocks, should the old statements be left on, or removed? I am just thinking of a scenario where I have run out of focus statements on a given Block because all the relevant ones have already been covered, and I am forcing myself to come up with new statements...

Another question: I wanted to post a technical question at the Focus Block Discussion Group at https://psitek.fogbugz.com/default.asp?focusblocks, but there is no link to register. Is that group still active, and if so, how can I register to post questions? Thanks.

@cod2 - You leave the old statements in the Blocks. But the Focus Blocks themselves are not intended to be there permanently for you to be endlessly finding new statements. Once you no longer feel bad about the subject, archive the Block out of the system. If the subject makes you feel bad again for some reason at some time in the future, you can reactivate the Block and read it back to bring some instant relief. I have rarely had Blocks that have needed more than 24 (2 x 12) statements.

@cod2 - I don't use the old group any more. If you have technical questions, you are better off joining the new Focus Blocks Testers Group. See "Update 3". In fact, if you understand how to use Version 1, you are far better off upgrading to Version 2 of the spreadsheet anyway.

@Stingray Thank you very much for the upgrade - nice work. Looking forward to getting to grips with it all.

@Stingray - Thanks for making, and publishing, this spreadsheet. Does Version 0.99.1 of the spreadsheet allow for the 'RQ' tags that were seen in the Death Star videos? That struck me as a really nice way of keeping things organized. Also, is the 'HUB' tag still active, or has that been disabled?

@emptyglass - "Does Version 0.99.1 of the spreadsheet allow for the 'RQ' tags that were seen in the Death Star videos?" - I can't honestly remember now :) That version was a few years ago and things have moved on quite a bit since then. If you wanted to go that route, you would be better off joining the spreadsheet group and getting the latest "version 2" spreadsheet which has many more goodies in it.
