Excel Mobile Help

Hello--

Two questions on Excel for my Axim 51V:
1) Is there any way to rotate the scereen to be viewed landscape so i can see more of the document left to right? if not, are ther any good programs that convert one of the hard keys to a screen switcher (landscape to portrait)

2) When I change zoom on a document from 100% to say 50%, it always reverts back to 50% when i open it next. is there any way to change this so all files open up with a default zoom below 100%?

Thanks in advance.

1) Yes that is built in to the OS. Start | Settings | System | Screen. You can map Rotate Screen to a button under Start | Settings | Personal | Button if you want.

2) Under the View menu in Excel, there is Zoom.

I rarely used the hard button for recording so I've remapped that button for rotating the screen which I use everytime I play a video or photo. More practical for my usage needs.

Great idea mapping the record button to rotate the screen.
The only time I use the record button is by mistake. Thanks! :approve:

Regarding the zoom, i can't seem to get it to stay at a default level of say 50%. Any specific ideas would be appreciatted.
