Valerie in Chicago Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I'm doing a project for someone, and they're sending me info via an Excel file. I need to open this database, update it, and send it back. Our "workhorse" computer is a desktop PC, so I could do it there. But it would be much comfier to do it on the iPad. I'm still a bit new to the iPad. Is there an app that will let me do this? Documents To Go, maybe? Dropbox might be helpful? I know what I want to do; I just need to figure out how to get there.

Slartibartfast Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 If it doesn't work you can always convert it to google docs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acurtis75 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Documents to go will work. There was also an app advertised the other day called online desktop which is supposed to work but I haven't figured it out yet. You could also use Team Viewer or Splashtop to access your computer remotely to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samiam Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Numbers is the App from Apple, that is comparable and compatible with Excel. Numbers is from the iWork software suite, created for Mac, as a comparable for Office. http://www.apple.com/apps/numbers/ It's also an App for the iPad. You can open/edit/save/send Excel files with Numbers, and have no issues, and send them to a PC users, and they will not have issues either! Plus you have support! I sometimes hate getting those obscure Apps because where do you go with questions!?!? Well, besides here at WTM forums, of course:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
