Hi Liviu, how do you ask to generate one lesson every day of the timetable?
i added more names, and it just filled it once over the 12 weeks

This is a fantastic start Liviu, thank you,
im now going to dissect this a little bit more and will revert back.
One question, when i click generate, it creates a folder with tons and tons of files.
Which file is the complete timetable?

Dear all,
I need help!
Heres what i have- a mac book pro, and FET the .dmg version.
Basically i am head of music at a school.
There are several classes in the school, like Year 1, 2 etc, there are several sections to the year groups, Eg 1A, 1B, 1C etc.
Every day, several visiting teachers come in to teach private lessons for guitar, piano, violin etc.
during this time, children who have signed up, leave their classes and academic timetables to go to the music room for a one on one guitar/piano/violin lesson.
This happens over a 10 or 12 week term.
Children need to rotate their times, for eg.
Rueben takes guitar lessons on sundays,
Week 1 it is 8 am, Week 2 8:30 Week 3 9am, and so on..
to rotate so that he does not miss the same academic lesson more than once every six or so weeks.
there are some restrictions too, for eg, he cant miss swimming ever (life saving skill), or that he is weak in french, so he cant leave french to go to a guitar lesson.
Then there are also school trips or black out times.
Sometimes pupils also have a fixed slot, like during lunch or after school

I need to create a timetable for atleast 10 pupils who learn guitar with the same teacher, on a rotating timetable.
Right now this is being done manually, and lots of cross referencing, but my company is getting popular and i cant cope with 100's of children!

Please help.
is there a way i can attach a copy of what we use right now?
