Pocket Excel; Creating A Workbook - Intermec 700 Series User Manual

SECTION 2 Pocket PC 2002

Pocket Excel

Pocket Excel works with Microsoft Excel on your desktop computer to give you
easy access to copies of your workbooks. You can create new workbooks on your
700 Series Computer, or you can copy workbooks from your desktop computer to
your 700 Series Computer. Synchronize workbooks between your desktop com-
puter and your 700 Series Computer so that you have the most up-to-date con-
tent in both locations.

Creating a Workbook

Use Pocket Excel to create workbooks, such as expense reports and mileage logs.
To create a new file, tap Start → Programs → Pocket Excel → New. A blank
workbook appears. Or, if you have 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 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).
Pocket Excel contains a list of the files stored on your 700 Series Computer. Tap
a file in the list to open it. To delete, make copies of, and send files, 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, func-
tions, sorting, and filtering. To display the toolbar, tap View → Toolbar.
" 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 oth-
ers to guess.
