11. Saving
The yellow button in the middle of the navigation bar terminates PlusXL. When terminating Pocket Excel with
the white button (on the outer right side), the file is automatically saved under a default name. Files can also
be saved under user-defined names.
When using templates, it is recommended to save them as workbooks with user defined names in order to be
able to reuse the original template. Select from the Pocket Excel-menu "Tools | Workbook save as ...“

Enter a user-defined name and save the file as a "Pocket Excel-Workbook“.
12. Synchronisation between pocket PC and desktop PC
In section 8 "Excel-Workbooks and Excel-Template“ the PlusXL documents were located in the "PlusXL"
directory of Excel. The path on the pocket PC is "„My Device/My Documents/PlusXL“. When ActiveSync links
the pocket PC and desktop PC, all files and folders from "„My Documents“ are synchronised on desktop PC
with the corresponding directory. The directory is created when the link between the pocket PC and the
desktop PC is established. The name of the directory is composed of the name of the pocket PC and "My
Documents“. Should the pocket PC be e.g. called "Pocket_PC_1 “then the synchronised directory would be
named "Pocket_PC_1 My Documents“. ActiveSync creates a link of the synchronised directory on the
desktop of the PC. The sub directory "„PlusXL“ of the synchronised directory contains all the PlusXL
documents. If a new Excel template or workbook is created on the desktop PC to be used with PlusXL, then it
has to be copied into the "PlusXL documents" folder. At the next synchronisation, the new Excel template or
workbook will be available on the pocket PC.
