Entering the Pocket Sheet Mode
1. Tap the Menu icon to display the Mode Menu, and then tap Pocket Sheet.
1 Sheet titles 2 Scroll bar
This is the Pocket Sheet list screen, which appears first when you enter the Pocket Sheet Mode.

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.
Chapter 8 Pocket Sheet Creating a New Sheet from Scratch
1. Display the Pocket Sheet list screen. 2. Tap the New button.
Row numbers Keyboard Input field Current cell Column names 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 cells 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. Tapping 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.

Examples The following are some examples of mathematical expressions you can input into sheet cells.
Cell Contents =1+2-3 =(1+2)*(3+4) =(A1+B5)*2 Displayed Result Result of expression using contents of cells A1 and B5 =$A$1+B2 Contents of cell A1 + Contents of cell B2 =2^(Raises left value to power specified by right value.) =ABS(A1) Absolute value of value in A1 =AVERAGE(A1:D5) Average of values in cells A1 through D5 =COUNT(A1:D5) Number of values in cells A1 through D5 =COUNTA(A1:A7) Number of non blank cells in cells A1 through A7 =EVEN(3) 4 (Rounds up to the nearest even number.) =INT(8.9) 8 (Rounds down to the nearest integer.) =MAX(A1:D5) Greatest value of those in cells A1 through D5 =MIN(A1:D5) Least value of those in cells A1 through D5 =MOD(3,2) 1 (Integer result when left value is divided by right value.) =ODD(2) 3 (Rounds up to the nearest odd number.) =ROUND(2.15,1) 2.2 (Rounds left value to decimal places specified by right value.) =SQRT(A1*5) Square root of value in cell A1 multiplied by 5 =SUM(A1:D5) Sum of contents of cells A1 through D5
Chapter 8 Pocket Sheet Inputting Text
Text (letters and numbers) can be input into the active cell using the onscreen text input keyboard. Input make up entirely of numbers (including decimal point) is treated as a numeric value. Inclusion of even a single non-numeric character (alpha-character or symbol) causes the input to be treated as text. Text is normally aligned in the cell flush left, while numbers are aligned flush right. If a text string is longer than the cell, the extra text is allowed to extend into the next cell to the right in the sheet display, as long as the neighboring cell does not contain any data. If it does, the extra characters are cut off in the sheet display. If an input value is longer than the cell that contains it, the contents of the cell are replaced by a string of # marks. This is to let you know that the cell contains a value, but the value cannot be displayed. If this happens, try making the cell wider (page 97). If the first character in a cell is an equals sign (=), the text is considered to be part of a mathematical expression.

Input Example

This section contains an example that illustrates a number of Pocket Sheet input techniques.

Example Data

All of the operations in this section are performed using the data shown below.
Example: To input the function below into cell C5. =SUM(A2:B5)*C2 This calculates the total of the values from cell A2 through cell B5, and then multiplies it by the value in cell C2 (4).
1. Open a sheet and then tap cell C5. 2. Perform the following keys operations to input characters into the input field.
3. Next, use the stylus to drag from cell A2 to cell B5, so all the required cells become highlighted. 4. Remove the stylus from the screen to input the range of selected cells into the input field. 5. Tap in the input bar to the right of the close parenthesis to move the cursor there.

Current width (number of screen dots)
3. Tap K to increase the value or L to decrease it. You can set the width value in the range of 3 to 130. 4. When the setting you want is displayed, tap Set to apply it.
Scroll Freezing Rows and Columns
Scroll freeze is a technique you can use to stop rows, and columns from scrolling when you tap the scroll bars on the screen. This is helpful when you want to leave row and column titles frozen on the screen as you scroll the data only. You can freeze rows only or columns, or you can freeze rows and columns at the same time.
To freeze columns only Example: The following procedure describes how to freeze column A.
1. In the top row of the displayed sheet, tap cell in the column to the right of the column you want to freeze. To freeze column A, for example, you would tap cell B in the top row. To freeze both column A and column B, tap cell C. 2. Tap Menu Bar to display the menu bar, and then tap Option Freeze.
Solid line indicates column to the left is frozen.
To freeze a row only 1. In the far left column of the displayed sheet, tap the cell in the row below the row you want to freeze. To freeze row 1, for example, you would tap cell 2 in the far left column. To freeze both rows 1 and 2, tap cell 3.
2. Tap Menu Bar to display the menu bar, and then tap Option Freeze.
Solid line indicates row above is frozen.
To freeze a row and column at the same time 1. Tap the cell below the row and to the right of the column you want to freeze. To freeze column A and row 1, for example, you would tap cell B2.
To unfreeze rows and columns If a row and/or column is frozen on the current sheet, tap Menu Bar to display the menu bar, and then tap Option Freeze to unfreeze them.

Inserting Rows

1. Select the location in the sheet where you want to input the rows. The number of cells you select determines the number of rows that are inserted. Selecting C1 inserts a single row at row 1. Selecting C1 and C2 inserts two rows at rows 1 and 2. Existing rows will be shifted downwards to make room for the newly inserted rows. 2. Tap Menu Bar to display the menu bar, and then tap Option Insert. 3. On the dialog box that appears, tap Rows to perform the row insert operation in accordance with the cells you selected in step 1.

Pocket Sheet Errors

The message #ERR appears inside of a cell any time one of the following operations is attempted with the cell. Division by zero Any mathematical operation that produces a value that exceeds the calculation limit Any mathematical operation in which a cell references itself Deletion of a row or column that contains a cell referenced by the cell A copy operation that causes the referenced cell to be outside the sheet Any copy operation, or row or column insert operation that causes the length of a function to exceed 256 characters Mathematical error Adding a large number of mathematical expressions to a sheet for which Auto Calculation is turned off can cause the #ERR message to appear. Parentheses can be nested up to 10 times inside a single calculation. Referencing of other cells within the same sheet is limited to 256 levels per calculation.
Important! Referencing a cell that contains a calculation that has not yet been performed may cause the referencing calculation to take a long time.

Secret Function

Your PV Unit lets you set up a secret memory area that keeps your data safe and secure under a password you specify. After you enter the secret memory area, you can use the Scheduler, Contacts, Memo, and Expense Manager modes to store data. Important! You can have only one secret memory area at any one time. All secret data for all modes is stored in the same secret memory area, regardless of what mode you were in when you created the secret memory area. Make sure you do not forget your password! There is no way to look up a password if you forget it. You will have to reset the PV Unit and clear all its memory contents in order to clear a forgotten password and create a new secret memory area.
Creating a New Secret Memory Area
Use the following procedure to create a new secret memory area. Note that this operation can be performed only if there is no secret memory area already in memory. 1. Tap the Menu icon to display the Mode Menu, and then tap Secret. 2. Use the text keyboard to type up to 12 characters for the password you want to use. 3. Tap Set to register your password and create a secret memory area. 4. In response to the confirmation message that appears, tap Yes. Registering a password creates and immediately enters the secret memory icon. area, which is indicated by the
Using the Secret Memory Area
The following describes the operations you can perform after you create a secret memory area.
To enter an existing secret memory area
1. 2. Tap the Menu icon to display the Mode Menu, and then tap Secret. Use the text keyboard to type the correct password, and then tap Set. If the password is correct, the PV Unit enters the secret memory area. Once you enter the secret memory area, you can move between it and the open (non-secret) memory area without having to input the password again until you turn power off and then back on again.

To correct entries during calculations
If you enter a wrong value, tap C to clear the value and then input the correct one. If you tap the wrong arithmetic key (+, , #, $), simply tap the correct arithmetic key before inputting anything else.
