• Zoom settings. Are not retained. Excel supports a per worksheet zoom setting, while
the Excel Mobile zoom setting is applied to the entire workbook.
• Worksheet names. Names that reference worksheets within the same workbook are
displayed accurately, but names that refer to other workbooks, arrays, for example,
={1;2;3;4}, array formulas, or intersection ranges are removed from the name list.
If a name is removed from the list, it is left in formulas and functions, causing those
formulas to be resolved as “#NAME?” All hidden names are not hidden.
• AutoFilter settings. Are removed. However, you can use the AutoFilter command
in Excel Mobile to perform similar functions. If you have an AutoFilter applied to a
worksheet that causes rows to be hidden, the rows remain hidden when the file is
opened in Excel Mobile. Use the Unhide command to display the hidden rows
• Chart formatting. All charts will be saved the way they are shown in Excel Mobile.
Unsupported chart types are changed to one of these supported types: Column, Bar,
Line, Pie, Scatter, and Area. Background colors, gridlines, data labels, trend lines,
shadows, 3D effects, secondary axes, and logarithmic scales are turned off.
• Worksheet features. The following features are not supported in Excel Mobile and are
removed or modified when a workbook is opened on the device: hidden sheets are not
hidden; VBA modules, macro sheets, and dialog sheets are removed and replaced with
a place holder sheet; text boxes, drawing objects, pictures, lists, conditional formats,
and controls are removed; pivot table data is converted to values.
