How To Edit Excel or Word Files Using iPhone?

I am trying to do SIMPLE edits of Excel or Word files...
in my emails I can view them, but not able to edit them...
-Glenn

Not necessarily. The problem is that the SDK forbids saving data to the iPhone itself. That means, if you write a letter, say, and save it, you can only save it via the internet to either a server (like iDisk) which you can then access on your desktop, or through a program like Google Documents.
Until Apple permits saving files to your iPhone itself for direct sync (which is currently forbidden) you need to use 3rd party workarounds. I have no idea what Dataviz is working on, nor whether it will be approved once they do complete a program, nor how you will have to save data.
WIthout being able to save data for sync directly through your iPhone itself rather than the internet, it really makes editing on the iPhone end of the deal pretty worthless for a lot of is.
I use OmniFocus for my To-Do lists, for example. It does not sync directly with the desktop version, but you have to sync your desktop with the server (in my case iDisk) and the iPhone with the Server -- it keeps both my iPhone and Desktop in sync, but ONLY works because data is stored on iDisk as the "library" so to speak....if I were to be in an area without data access, I would not be able to keep up-to-date to-do lists.

How to attach a excel or word file when replying to a mail ?

Hi,
I am having problem while using safari app.
When i am to reply to a mail and while replying i am to attach an excel or word file, how should i do it ?

Doesn't matter what mail it is. You cannot actually do this on an iPhone. It is a bit frustrating. The only thing you can attach to a mail message (from within the message itself) is a photo or video.
You can email all sorts of things from within lots of apps, but you cannot add something to a message.

Hi Edit Converted Word Doc,
What's happening when you try to edit the file? Have you tried triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit?
Please let us know what sort of trouble you're running into. It would also be helpful to know how the PDF file was created, and what version of Word you're using.

How do I open a microsoft word file using Teststand 2010?

Hi All,
I am currently using Teststand 2010. I need to do a simple task, at least I thought it was simple. I want to open a microsoft word file using Teststand 2010. I thought the using the "Call Executable" would be the first step, but I am not sure how to set it up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
WJ

Hello,
You will actually need to use an ActiveX step to use Microsoft Word. I found this forum post with a similar question and an example. I opened the example and saved it to TestStand 2010 to reattach here.
Note: you will probably need to modify the "Open Document" step to make sure the FileName of the Word document matches the real file location.

Hi,
Have you try to un-select the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) setting?
Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options.
Click Advanced, and then click to clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)
check box in the General area.
Click OK.
If the problem cannot resolve, the Run as administrator may selected.
Go to Office default install location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12.
Right-click EXCEL.EXE > Properties >
Compatibility tab.
Under Privilege Level, uncheck Run this program as an administrator
check box.
Best regards.

Out look 365 crash when preview excel or word file

Good day
Nobody help me first time i write
I got this problem with my outlook 365
Every time i try to preview excel or word file in any message on outlook 365
It hang then crash and restart
Fny help how can i fix this problem
i even try to fast reinstall
then try to full reinstall it didn't help
My office version is 15.0.4701.1002
I use windows 8.1 64bit

Hi,
Have you ever checked the crash log? Does it say anything useful there? Does this only happen with Excel and Word files? What about other type of attachments?
What do you mean by "fast reinstall" and "full reinstall"?
This issue might occurs due to lots of reasons, I would suggest we first try below steps to troubleshoot the issue:
Try to clean out Outlook attachement cache, then try again. For Outlook 2013, the default folder location of these cache files is stored in the following registry key. Copy the path in the Value, open and clean the file in it:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Security|OutlookSecureTempFolder.
Install any available udpates or update your Office to the latest version. It's always recommended to keep your current up to date.
Test in Outlook safe mode, and see if issue persists: Press Win + R and type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, then press Enter.
Hope this helps, please feel free to post back with any findings.

I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account?

I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account? When it says 'download the converted file' I choose a location on my PC and click, but nothing happens. It seems that it can only save the converted file to my online account. I went to my online account but I see no way to look for the file

Hey Fabrizio,
You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID credentials to convert your PDF file to Word.
Do you get the 'download' prompt?
Also, you can find the converted files by clicking at the 'Files' tab.
Please try the same using a different browser and check.
Hope to hear from you.

Can't open Excel or Word files on share drive (SMB or AFP) after 10.9.2

After updating to Mavericks OS 10.9.2, I can no longer open excel or word files on my company file share. I receive the error:
'FILEPATH' could not be found.
Ckeck the spelling of the file name, and verify that the file location is correct.
If you are trying to open the file from your list of most frequently used files on the File menu, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved, or deleted.
I am able to open files on my lcaol hard drive, and other external USB Flash drives. Word present's a slightly different error, with the same theme (filename).
I've tried rebooting both the client and server (both running 10.9.2). Was successful opening files when booting the client into safe mode. Any ideas?
Bill

I don't know if this will help but I had a similar problem that started yesterday. I have two macs. Once can't open MS Office files from the other Mac but can open Office files on each Mac. Drove me nuts for about 2 hours today - on the phone with Apple twice and Microsoft once. Finally found a similar post from 2007 that suggested to turn off and on file sharing by unchecking the "Share files and folders using AFP", on both computers and rebooting. That fixed it.
Funny thing, it was only with Office files I created since updating the software last week. Old Office files opened fine.

How do I convert a word file larger than 100 mb to pdf?

I use the adobe online pdf service to convert word files. I have a file that is 101mb and the converter won't upload and convert the file. How do I convert this word file to pdf now?

Hi adrentcdc,
There is a 100 MB file-size limit for uploading to the Adobe PDF Pack online service. Since no such limitation exists for Acrobat, you could use that to convert the file to PDF. You're welcome to download a free 30-day trial, and give it a spin. For more information, see www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
