I have a mini laptop that is a nec 780 mobile pro and when I hot sync to my
home computer the spreadsheet is changed to the XP version and when I hotsync
back to the mini laptop I call up this spreadsheet and it will not read it
due to the spread sheet has been reformated for the XP windows how do I
reformate back to the Windows CE so I can hot sync to my mini laptop?

Hi,
When you save the file on your Mobile Pro, make sure you select the Excel
format. The default is Pocket Excel however XP does not know how to read
these files.

Have you tried anything to sort it, and if so what- this will avoid any
duplication of what you have done and may give a clue. Versions of your
programs being used would help too- you really need to give details if you
want help.

Is the unnamed excel version supported by the unnamed activesync version?
Did you check in the help file/MS website? Is activesync set to convert
excel files? Have you tried the file in its native format if conversion is
on (and vice versa)? Have you tried saving the excel sheet in an earlier
version filetype in excel then trying synching again?
