Using Applications Other Than Microsoft Excel; Expense File Details - 3Com Palm V Handbook

16. Repeat steps 9 through 15 for each Section that you have defined
for your custom Expense Report.
17.
Map Expense Report Options dialog (magenta section).
Report Options dialog has five fields where you can fill in data for
the header on your expense report. Use this section to specify the
row and column on your template where this information will be
mapped.
Because header data is not related to any particular Section, you
have to fill in only one row. If the item does not appear on your
template, leave these cells blank.

Using applications other than Microsoft Excel

You can use applications other than Microsoft Excel (such as Lotus
1-2-3 or Quattro Pro) to open and manipulate the Expense data on
your computer. The data file is named "Expense.txt," and is stored in
the Expense folder, within the folder containing the organizer user
data.
Expense data in the Expense.txt file is in tab-delimited format.

Expense file details

The Expense.txt file contains four groups of data. It will be easier to see
these four distinct groups of data if you open the file with a
spreadsheet application.
