Hi Everyone,

I'm am looking for other options for viewing excel spreadsheets on our Samsung Galaxy S i9000 phones.

We need to be able to search codes for prices in a 4MB excel spreadsheet which has over 44500 rows.

When searching for a code, it will take approx 5-10minutes to find what it's looking for which I suspect is due to the size of the file or the number of rows it has to search.

I am using Thinkfree Office and have the spreadsheet on an external SD card.

I have tried a couple of other free apps with no joy and so now its probably time I try some of the pay-to-use apps.

Before I go paying for any, are there any which anyone can recommend or even suggest other alternatives?

Thanks in advance!

Chris

I don't have an answer and am wondering if you have found an app that loads large spreadsheets quickly and allows a quick search. I too have the same issue and am thinking of going back to iPhone if I can't rectify.
