Pocket Excel

Pocket Excel works with Microsoft Excel on the desktop computer to provide easy access
to copies of your workbooks. You can create new workbooks on the terminal, or copy
workbooks from the desktop computer to the terminal. Synchronize workbooks between
the desktop computer and the terminal so you have up-to-date content in both locations.
To create a new workbook in Pocket Excel, such as an expense report or mileage log, tap
Start - Programs - Pocket Excel, then New. A blank workbook appears. Or, if you've
selected a template for new workbooks in the Options dialog box, that template appears
with appropriate text and formatting already provided. You can open only one workbook at
a time; when you open a second workbook, you'll be asked to save the first. You can save
a workbook in a variety of formats, including Pocket Excel (.pxl) and Excel (.xls).
Pocket Excel lists the files stored on the terminal. Tap a file in the list to open it. To delete,
make copies of, or send a file, tap and hold a file in the list, then select the appropriate
action from the pop-up menu.
Pocket Excel provides fundamental spreadsheet tools, such as formulas, functions, sorting,
and filtering. To display the toolbar, tap View - Toolbar.
