    Microsoft Applications for iPad - Can someone help

    Hi Everyone, I'm Bron and I have a new iPad, which I think I love BUT I am growing to dislike it. I suppose that I am thankful that I have found this site.

    I have searched and searched to find out how and why I can't get my microsoft excel sheets to open properly on my iPad.

    Ok I purchased Documents to Go and it was a no go, I purchased Numbers and it was shocking as well.

    I got the iPad as I am a rep and I was sick of lugging my laptop around everywhere, and then when I get home working longer hours, this is so compact but it is useless if I can't get the right software.

    Our company only supports Microsoft applications and oh yes I can use Citrix through them, but this is so slow...

    I really look forward to getting some help with this as I am renting this iPad as otherwise I will just have to put it in the back of the cupboard.

    Thanks heaps

    Bron

    Can you describe the problems you are having with Numbers? Most Members don't have any difficulty with this app. For sure, it's a stripped down version of the desktop equivalent, but the iPad was never intended to replace a PC. If you let us know what problems you're having, perhaps we can find some workarounds.

    As Tim points out...the iPad is not a PC replacement. It's a great tool, but does have limitations.

    This info might help...
