This chapter tells you about Microsoft Pocket Word and Microsoft Pocket Excel.

Pocket Word

Microsoft Pocket Word works with Microsoft Word on your PC to give you easy access to copies of your documents. You can create new documents on your V35 or you can copy documents from your PC.

IMPORTANT: Synchronize documents between your PC and your V35 regularly so that you have the most up-to-date content in both locations.

Using Pocket Word

1On the Start, tap Programs and then tap the Pocket Word icon.

2Type the name of a document in the file list or tap New to open a blank document.

NOTE: To open a template rather than a blank document, select a template for new documents. Tap on the Tools menu, tap Options, then browse to select the default template. When you tap New, the template appears with appropriate text and formatting already provided.

You can open only one document at a time; when you open a second document, you will be asked to save the first. You can save a document you create or edit in a variety of formats, including Pocket Word (.psw), Rich Text Format (.rtf), and Plain Text (.txt).

You can enter information in Pocket Word in four modes: writing, drawing, typing, and recording. Use the View menu to switch between modes. Each mode has its own toolbar which you can show or hide by tapping the Show/ Hide Toolbar button on the Command bar.

•Typing Mode. Use the Input panel to enter typed text into the document with the soft keyboard. For more information on entering typed text, see “Entering Information” in Chapter 2.

•Writing Mode. In writing mode, use your stylus to write directly on the screen. Ruled lines are displayed as a guide, and the zoom magnification is greater than in typing mode to allow you to write more easily. For more
