Hi Excellers!

Best wishes for 2019!!

Is it possible to save Excel spreadsheets to local storage or to attached storage (lightning to usb adapter)? Any solution?

It seems Excel for iOS forces one to
a) login (to a MS account presumably...)
b) store files to the MS cloud

I've had numerous problems with cloud and sync and therefore wish to avoid it as much as possible. For this reason I have decided to (try) to only stick to Dropbox.
I know it is possible to connect a usb stick to iOS, I use the SanDisk Xpand for this.
However all of these gimmicks come with their own apps and it seems iOS / Excel do not allow to save to either Dropbox or usb attachment.

I realise that wifi solutions exist, however that is really over the top and I don't want to carry around my own network only to be able to save a spreadsheet..

Thanks for any suggestion!

Erwin

Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
