Hand Held Products 7900 manual Pocket Excel, Creating a Word File, Typing Mode, Drawing Mode

You can change the zoom magnification by tapping View > Zoom, and then selecting the percentage you want. Select a higher percentage to enter text and a lower one to see more of your document. If you’re opening a Word document created on a desktop computer, select Wrap to Window on the View menu so that you can see the entire document.

Creating a Word File

To create a new file, tap Start > Programs > Pocket Word > New. A blank document appears. If you’ve selected a template for new documents in the Options dialog box, that template appears with appropriate text and formatting already provided.

You can enter information in Pocket Word in one of two modes (typing on the SIP or keyboard and drawing), which are displayed on the View menu.

Typing Mode

Using the SIP or Dolphin keypad, enter typed text into the document.

To format existing text and to edit text, first select the text. You can select text as you do in a Word document, using your stylus instead of the mouse to drag through the text you want to select. You can search a document to find text by tapping Edit and then Find/Replace.

Drawing Mode

In drawing mode, use your stylus to draw on the screen. Gridlines appear as a guide. When you lift your stylus off the screen after the first stroke, you’ll see a drawing box indicating the boundaries of the drawing. Every subsequent stroke within or touching the drawing box becomes part of the drawing.

For more information on using Pocket Word, tap Start and then Help.

Pocket Excel

Pocket Excel works with Microsoft Excel on your desktop computer to give you easy access to copies of your workbooks. You can create new workbooks on the terminal, or you can copy and paste workbooks from your desktop computer. Synchronize workbooks between your desktop computer and the terminal so that you have the most up-to-date content in both locations.

You can open only one workbook at a time; when you open a second workbook, you’ll be asked to save the first. You can save a workbook you create or edit in a variety of formats, including Pocket Excel (.pxl) and Excel (.xls).

Pocket Excel contains a list of the files stored on your device. Tap a file in the list to open it. To delete, make copies of, and send files, tap and hold a file in the list. Then select the appropriate action from the pop-up menu. Pocket Excel provides fundamental spreadsheet tools, such as formulas, functions, sorting, and filtering. To display the toolbar, tap View > Toolbar.
