Working with Microsoft Pocket Office

Microsoft Pocket Office makes it easy to work in the familiar

Office environment, even when you are away from your

desktop or notebook PC. You can start any of the Pocket

Office programs by double-tapping the appropriate icon on

the desktop or by pressing the appropriate HP hot key. For

more detailed information about these programs, see the

Microsoft Pocket Office topic in online Help.

Using Microsoft Pocket Word

You can create and edit documents or templates in Pocket

Word just as you do in Microsoft Word on your desktop

computer. Begin by placing the cursor in the document page

and start typing in either Outline or Normal view. A spell-

ing checker is provided to verify spelling accuracy, and you

can quickly format text using buttons and menu commands

similar to those found in Microsoft Word on your desktop

PC. You can access international characters and symbols for

currencies from the Tools menu.

Pocket Word allows you to save documents in several file

formats so that your files can be opened by other users or

other programs. If you transfer documents between your

HP Jornada and desktop PC, Windows CE Services auto-

matically converts the files to the appropriate file type. If

you send files by e-mail, be sure you save your document in

a format that can be opened by the recipient:
