I Dont Understand

Can u Displaay Excel spreadsheets on iPhone

and

if so

how?
 
You can, but only if someone emails one to your (or you email one to yourself). There isn't any support to edit one natively - not sure if there's an app in the app store that does?
 
To add:

There are some apps that let you move (copy) an Excel spreadsheet from your Mac to the iPhone/Touch.

You can then view the spreadsheet via a viewer, but you cannot edit the spreadsheet.
 
programs such as datacase, air sharing, files etc will let you connect to your pc or mac via wifi and copy across files, including excel files, which can be viewed, but not edited on the iphone
 
butbutbut

is that the only way i can view them? by going on air sharing?
 
My question is, can you, or is there an app that allows you to, view excel spreadsheets with macros enabled?
 
nonono

if i email em to myself via hotmail i can only receive them via safari so how do i download them?
 
you can't download attachments (apart from photos)

what is it you want to be able to do? view excel files? if so, email them to yourself or use files, air sharing, datacase etc
 
butbutbut

i can only view the excel files on air sharing then :S

is there no other way to view them?

yes, if you email them to yourself

there are two, and only two ways to view files:
via email or air sharing, datacase etc

how else do you expect/want to view them?

You can't edit it yet (unless there is a new app that just appeared in the app store).

Email it to an account you have on your iphone. Click on the little attachment icon in the email. Once it is done downloading click on it and it will open up in a new window for you.

I have done this with the following version of excel, 2000, 2003, 2007. They all worked fine. I don't know if macro's work or not. But if you can't edit it, would you need macro's?

Hopefully this helps......
 
Thanks

help much appreciated

But I think I'll make a g-mail account and then email to myself :)

Thanks though


Now going a little off topic but is there a possibility apple might make the 2G's resolution match the 3G's? Because they're alot different?!?!
 
Wtf

the screens are different. 3G is way better resolution.

Anyone agree?
