Pocket Excel
Microsoft Pocket Excel works with Microsoft Excel on your PC to give you easy
access to copies of your workbooks. You can create new workbooks in your
V35, or you can copy workbooks from your PC to your V35. Synchronize
workbooks between your PC and your V35 so that you have the most up-to-
date content in both locations. Pocket Excel provides fundamental spreadsheet
tools, such as formulas, functions, sorting, and filtering, which enable you to
create simple workbooks, such as expense reports and mileage logs.
