What’s New in Excel Mobile?

Todd Ogasawara wrote a terrific article on Excel Mobile that will open your eyes to the new features of this powerful mobile application. In part, this is what Todd had to say:

A Windows Mobile 5.0 powered Pocket PC or Pocket PC Phone Edition comes with a handful of Microsoft Office Mobile programs, including Word Mobile, PowerPoint Mobile, and Excel Mobile.

If you used Pocket Excel on previous versions of Windows Mobile, a quick glance at Excel Mobile on a Windows Mobile 5.0 powered device might leave you thinking it has not changed much. A longer look, however, reveals some significant and much welcomed changes and additions. Here are the new Excel Mobile features we’ll go over.

Using menu option on soft keys
Using a keyboard with Excel menus
Viewing a spreadsheet in full screen mode
Using native Excel file formats
Creating charts and graphs


If you are thinking of upgrading to a new device (or already have), this article is well worth the read. You can find Todd's article here.
