Abstract
The current reality still found school counselors who are less familiar with computer applications. It became a fundamental consideration for the development of e-sociometry by utilizing formulas and macros in Microsoft Excel. E-sociometry is stored using the XLB file extension so that the file size tends to be smaller and compatible with macros. Spreadsheets and tab buttons are modified to make user-friendly use and look easier. E-sociometry is used to measure the level of social relations of students in the class that refers to specific criteria. The developed e-Sociometry has tested on school counselors in Indonesia. School counselors in Indonesia who have used e-sociometry give positive feedback on the idea of making this application.
