Using Microsoft Pocket Excel
You can use Pocket Excel to create workbooks, such as
expense reports and mileage logs. You can also use Pocket
Excel to open and edit workbooks created using the desktop
version of Excel. When you are ready to save a workbook you
created or edited, you can save it in a variety of formats,
including Pocket Excel (.pxl) and Excel (.xls). If you plan to
send the document through e-mail to someone who will be
using Excel, not Pocket Excel, be sure to save it in the Excel
(.xls) format.
Pocket Excel provides fundamental spreadsheet tools, such as
formulas, functions, sorting, and filtering. You can split
panes to easily view different areas of a large worksheet. You
can also “freeze” the top and leftmost panes in a worksheet to
keep row and column labels or other data visible as you scroll
through a sheet.
To create a workbook using Pocket Excel
1. On the File menu, point to New, and click
Workbook from Template.
2. Select a template, such as Expense Report, and then
click OK.
3. On the File menu, click Save.
4. Type a name for your file, and then click OK.
5. Replace the text in the template.
