Yet Another Program I Want to Make

Oh for the time to actually do some programming.
I was looking at a college schedule, trying to figure out what classes I would want to take. For a single class however, there may be 6 during the same semester, and this is just the day ones, and 3 or so of which I could probably do before I had to go to work myself. To add to the complications you have 5 or 6 subjects to take during the semester so you had to really consult dates and times when trying to figure out which ones to take. I then decided the best idea would be to make a program where I would enter all 6 or so classes for each of 5 or 6 subjects into a program and use it to help avoid conflicts.
I then modified my idea to include warning levels if a class might conflict with work or the time to get to work. For example, I work at 3 PM. It might give a yellow alert when I have an hour and an orange alert at 30 minutes and a red alert at 15 minutes, all configurable for each user of the program.
The idea was further revised when talking with Sara and trying to figure a way that we can both work, both go to school and minimize the time that Ari would have to be watched by somebody other than us. To then the program idea was modified to allow 2 or more people see how much overlap they have and try to minimize it.
The unfortunate thing is that the user will have to enter lots of information. English Composition for example may be offered 12 times during the semester during the time period the user might be able to go. The user has to enter each of those. The user interface will make things easier by allowing the user to “duplicate” an entry and then all they have to modify is the Class ID (the ID given by the school for that specific class at that specific date and time, this compares to the Course ID which is what all 12 of the same class from above would share) dates the class is offered if that changes (class starting and ending dates such as 8/27/07 to 9/13/07), times, days (Mon, Tue, etc.), campus and room information.
I tried finding a program like this morning, but so far I haven’t had any luck, at least not free. Most of what I have seen, free or otherwise is geared to the school itself, not for the student, and none of which seemed to really do what I wanted. So I guess I have another program to add to my programming queue.
