Has anyone tried viewing Excel 2007 and newer on an iPad. When we do, we lose many of the features. However, Excel 2003 works fine.


Thanks.

The functionality will be dependent on what app you use to open/read the Excel file.
 
Thanks Hui. It's not my iPad, so I don't have all the details. Do you have any recommendations for the most usability?
 
I don't have an iPad and can rarely get my wifes off her or the kids.


You won't be able to use any files that use VBA macros or user defined functions.


I also doubt that iterative functions like Data Tables, Solver or Pivot Tables etc will work.

Most other functions should be supported by most apps


I'm not sure about Conditional Formatting


This sounds like a good idea for a post!

Thanks for the links. Sounds like MIcrosoft and Apple definitely need to figure something out for the consumers.
 
Hi, ann99m!

Usually I recommend people to upload or send a sample file for better understanding of the issue.

In this case, and as I don't know how to upload it, I'd love you sending the iPad so as I can study the issue for let's say... 6 months?

Regards!

PS: just a joke :)

PS2: but if you're willing... :)))
