Pocket Excel

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Even if you will copy it to the PDA in a way it does not get reformatted you
Pocket Excel won't be able to work with this file. Pocket Excel is very
limited.

If you want to work with such advanced workbooks then you have to buy
SoftMaker PlanMaker or use SpreadCE.

Spreadce has a free version which is the
trial (trial will not expire if you do not
register) with pop-ups, but it works great
for me.

Pocket Excel doesn't support all the features
of the desktop version, and copying the
desktop file to your ppc as is won't help-
pocket excel won't be able to open it.

Look at the alternative spreadsheet
programs, but it may be a pain listing all the
features you are using then checking them
off what's available in another program.
Some have trials available, why not give
those that do a go?
The program prices do vary quite a bit so
check that out if it's a concern.

SpreadCE has a trial,

Then there is Planmaker, Smartsheet and
PTab, check if they have trials. (all available
at Handango I think
www.handango.com)
