The main difference between the V Planner and the High School V Planner is this:
V Planner is a homeschool planner that supports up to four children for one year.
High School V Planner is a homeschool planner that supports one child for four years and it keep a few extra records that are suitable for high school record keeping.

The High School V Planner is a spreadsheet file and to use it you must have on your computer a program that is compatible with XLS or XLSX files. As far as I know, Microsoft Excel is the only software program that is fully compatible with High School V Planner files. Seriously the V Planner will probably not work with other programs, so if you do not have the full version, not a trial version and not a free version, of Microsoft Excel, then do not expect to be able to use the High School V Planner.

Usage of V Planner files

You may use the file as it is intended to be used, which is to maintain homeschool records and to manage lesson plans.
