9.2 Pocket Excel
You can create and edit workbooks and templates in
Microsoft Pocket Excel
just as you
would do in
Microsoft Excel
on your PC.
Pocket Excel workbooks
are usually saved as
.pxl
files, but you can also save them in the
.xls
format. When you close a workbook, it
is automatically named and placed in the
Pocket Excel workbook
list. You can attach a
password to a workbook to ensure privacy.
Synchronizing Pocket Excel workbooks
Pocket Excel workbooks can be synchronized with Excel workbooks on your PC. To syn-
chronize files, select the
Files
type for synchronization in ActiveSync Options settings on
your PC. When you select
Files
, a
\My Documents
folder is created on your PC’s desktop.
Place all the files you want to synchronize with the device in this folder. Password-protected
files cannot be synchronized.
All
Pocket Excel
files that are stored in \
My Documents
and its subfolders are synchronized
with the PC.
ActiveSync
converts documents during synchronization.
When you delete a file on your PC or your device, the file will be deleted in the other location
the next time you synchronize.
For more information on synchronization or file conversion, see
ActiveSync Help
on the
PC.
