Windows Phone 8 : Microsoft Office Mobile - Excel (part 7) - Undo and Redo, Charting

Undo and Redo

When you are working on a spreadsheet on a mobile device using a touchscreen, it is easy to make a mistake. Thankfully, Excel Mobile contains an Undo function and a Redo function. You can access Undo and Redo by following these steps:

1. Tap the Menu icon.

2. Tap either Undo or Redo.

Why Can’t I Undo

Keep in mind that Undo and Redo might be grayed out if your last action can’t be undone (such as when you apply a filter). Furthermore, Undo and Redo appear only on Excel’s main menu. If you are accessing a specific Excel function and look at the menu icon, you won’t see them there.

Charting

In spite of its simple interface, Excel Mobile enables you to add charts to a spreadsheet. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Select a range of cells containing the data you want to chart.

2. Tap the Chart icon.

3. Tap the type of chart you want to insert.

Returning to Your Spreadsheet

To get back to your spreadsheet after creating or viewing a chart, tap the Sheets icon.
