Ok, so I got a new Nokia Windows 8 smartphone, with Mobile Office pre-installed. Great, I thought, I can work with Excel right on my phone! However, I soon found myself shocked at how few features actually are supported. Is it just me, or does Excel Mobile really suck? I mean, what the heck, no copy / cut / paste? Cell formatting reduced to something like 4 number formats and 3 colors. When "right-clicking" a cell the only option you get is "freeze panes". I can't understand what they were thinking.

What do you think?

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
As far as I know, the fact that you cannot set or insert some functionality on the mobile, does not mean that it is not supported.
The idea is that you develop the spreadsheet on the desktop Excel and upload to your mobile.
