Creating a Workbook

Use Excel Mobile to create workbooks, such as expense reports and mileage

logs. To create a new file, tap Start > Programs > the Excel Mobile icon >

New to access a blank workbook. Or, if you have selected a template for

new workbooks under the Menu > Tools > Options, that template appears

with appropriate text and formatting already provided.

For future use, this is added to your Start menu in the Recent Programs

area, via Start > Excel Mobile.

You can open only one workbook at a time; when you open a second work-

book, save the first. You can save a workbook you create or edit in a variety

of formats, including Pocket Excel (.PXL) and Excel (.XLS). You can also

save a workbook as a template by moving the workbook to the Templates

folder.

Excel Mobile contains a list of the files stored on your CN3 Computer. Tap

a file in the list to open it. To delete, make copies of, send files, tap and

hold a file in the list, then select the appropriate action from the menu.

Excel Mobile provides fundamental spreadsheet tools, such as formulas,

functions, sorting, and filtering. Tap View > Toolbar to see the toolbar.

Note the following when working in large worksheets in Excel Mobile:

• View in full-screen mode to see as much of your worksheet as possible.

Tap View > Full Screen. To exit full-screen mode, tap View > Full

Screen.

• Tap View > Zoom and select a percentage so that you can easily read the

worksheet.

• Show and hide window elements. Tap View > Show, then tap the ele-

ments you want to show or hide.

• Freeze panes on a worksheet. First select the cell where to freeze panes.

Tap View > Freeze Panes. You might want to freeze the top and leftmost

panes in a worksheet to keep row and column labels visible as you scroll

through a sheet. Tap View > Unfreeze Panes to undo this process.
