How do I get excel file from pocket pc to Jornada 720

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

My recollection is that the Pocket PC and Handheld PC (Jornada 720)
Excel file formats are different. So, the best way to do it is to use an
PC with ActiveSync to auto-translate the Pocket PC format to desktop
Excel format and then let ActiveSync translate that to the Handheld PC
format when you copy the files from the desktop to the Handheld PC.

Barring that option, the 2215 Pocket Excel can Save As an excel 97/2000
workbook which I would think you could IR beam to the 720 and read.
