Ok guys quick question, Can the pocket pc's open a 6mb Excel file? Here's the situation, I sold a customer a Toshiba E330, because he wanted to view a price list he had made up in Excel '97, instead of having to view it on his laptop. The file is about 6mb and does not have any, macros or complicated formulas. The problem is when we try to load the spreadsheet, the PPC will just be busy for 20 mins without anything happening. I tried it on severa; PPC including Ipaq 3970 same probs. Calling both Toshiba and Microsoft resulted with the same answer, "Yeah our PPC/Software should have no probs opening a 6mb file" The file is convereted to a proper .pxl file as well and is the only thing installed/running. Can you guys recommend any solutons or 3rd party programs to solve this prob?
Cheers
Steve

This is a total guess here. But maybe the ipaq ran out of program memory, try go in to memory setting and slide it to give lots and lots of memory to the program side, and try open the spreadsheet again.
