10.2 Pocket Excel

Pocket Excel works with Microsoft

®

Excel on your PC to

provide easy access to copies of your workbooks. You can
create new workbooks on your device, or you can copy
workbooks from your PC to your device. Synchronize
workbooks between your PC and your device so that you
have the most up-to-date content in both locations.

To create a new Pocket Excel file:

1. Tap

>

Programs > Pocket Excel > New. (A blank

work book appears. )

2. If you have selected a template for new workbooks
in the

Options dialog box, that template appears

with appropriate text and formatting already

provided.

Pocket Excel provides fundamental spreadsheet tools, such as
formulas, functions, sorting, and filtering. To display the toolbar, tap
View, then select Toolbar.

Note:

You can open only one workbook at a time; when you open a
second workbook, you will be asked to save the first. You can save
a workbook you create or edit in a variety of formats, including
Pocket Excel (.pxl) and Excel (.xls).

Note:

If your workbook contains sensitive information, you can
protect it with a password. To do so, open the workbook;
tap Edit > Password. Every time you open the workbook, you
will need to enter the password, so choose one that is easy for you
to remember but hard for others to guess.
