Creating a Workbook
You can open only one workbook at a time. Save the first workbook before
you open the second workbook. You can save a workbook in formats such
as 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. 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.
Tips for Working in Excel Mobile
Note the following when working in large worksheets in Excel Mobile:
• View in full-screen mode to see as much of the worksheet as possible.
Tap View > Full Screen. Tap View > Full Screen to exit the 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
elements 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.
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.
