Pocket Sheet Basics

With Pocket Sheet, you can open up a blank sheet and build the sheet you want from scratch. The following sections describe how to open a new sheet, and how to perform some of the most basic sheet operations.

Creating a New Sheet from Scratch

1. Display the Pocket Sheet list screen.

2. Tap the New button.

1 Row numbers 2 Keyboard

3 Input field

4 Current cell 5 Column names 6 Cells

• Columns are named using the letters of the alphabet from A to Z, while rows are numbered sequentially from 1 to 999.

• The maximum capacity for a single sheet is about 32KB (about 1,900 cells when each cell contains one character, without any format settings or borderlines). The message “Sheet is too big!” appears on the display whenever the contents of a file exceeds this limit. If a sheet being received by the unit during a Pocket Sheet Sync operation exceeds the maximum limit (about 32KB), the excess cell data is automatically cut off. In this case, the sync operation ends normally, with no indication that the data was cut off. This means you should always check sheet contents visually after a sync operation is complete.

• A cell is referred to using its cell reference, which is made up of the cell’s column name and row number. This means that the cell reference of the upper left cell in the above sheet is A1, and the cell reference of the lower right cell is D5.

• The active cell is the one that is currently selected for input. The active cell is highlighted.

• The numeric keyboard appears first whenever you open a new sheet.

Chapter 8 Pocket Sheet

Making a Cell the Active Cell

You can make a cell active by tapping it with the stylus so it becomes highlighted. You can also move the highlighting around the display using the scroll bar as described below.

To do this:

Move the highlighting one cell left Move the highlighting one cell right Move the highlighting one cell up Move the highlighting one cell down

• T apping the gray areas of the scroll bar scrolls the entire screen with the highlighted active cursor in the same relative position in the newly displayed screen.

Tap here on the Scroll Bar:

J K L

Selecting a Range of Cells

While a sheet is open on the display, drag the stylus across the range of cells you want to select. The cells become highlighted as you drag across them.

• Dragging straight left or right selects a range of cells in the same row.

• Dragging straight up or down selects a range of cells in the same column.

• Dragging diagonally selects a block of cells (multiple rows and columns).

Jumping to a Specific Cell in a Sheet

Important!

• You cannot jump to a cell located inside a row or column that is frozen. To jump to such a cell, you must unfreeze the row or column first.

1. While a sheet is on the display, tap the Menu Bar icon to display the menu bar, and then tap Edit – Go To to display the Go To screen.

2. Use the on-screen keyboard to type in the cell reference (column and row) of the cell to which you want to jump.

• To jump to cell Z999, for example, type “Z999”.

3. Tap Exe to jump to the cell you specified.

Inputting Data Into a Cell

This section explains the rules and procedures for inputting text, values, and mathematical expressions into sheet cells. It also contains detailed information on the various cell functions that are available.

General Input Rules

The following are the general rules that you should observe whenever inputting data.

• Anything you enter on the keyboard is input into the sheet’s active cell.

• You can input up to 256 characters into each cell.

• Mixing text and numbers inside the same cell causes everything in the cell to be treated as text.

• Do not manually input commas as separators inside values. Doing so interferes with correct display of calculation results. Use the procedure under “Changing the Format Settings of a Cell” on page 95 to turn on automatic comma separators.

Chapter 8 Pocket Sheet

Cell References

The term cell reference means calling the contents of one cell into another cell. Pocket Sheet supports three types of cell references: relative, absolute, and mixed. Whether a cell references is relative, absolute, or mixed does not make affect the results it normally produces. The cell reference type matters only when the contents of the cell are copied and then pasted into another location. See “Copying a Relative Cell Reference” on page 109 and “Copying an Absolute or Mixed Cell Reference” on page 109 for full information about how cell references are affected by cut, copy, and paste operations.

Relative Cell References

As its name suggests, a relative cell reference is one that references a cell in relation to the cell where the reference is made. Note the following examples.

Relative Cell

Reference

A1:A10

A1:E1

Contents of cell A1 Contents of the column of cells from A1

through A10 Contents of the row of cells from A1 to E1

Meaning

Absolute Cell References

An absolute cell reference is one that references a specific cell, no matter where it is located in relation to the cell where the reference is made. A reference is made absolute by inserting a dollar sign in front of its column name and row number. Note the following examples.

Absolute Cell

Reference

$A$1

$A$1:$A$10

$A$1:$E$1

Contents of cell A1. Both the column ($A) and row ($1) references are absolute.

Contents of the column of cells from A1 through A10. All the column and row references are absolute.

Contents of the row of cells from A1 to E1. All the column and row references are absolute.
