> P900 viewer not viewing WORD docs
Bookmark topic
my new P900 is supposed to view microsoft EXCEL and WORD documents. it opens excel ones very slowly compared to my P800. but it does not even see Word documents on my memory stick or on the phone memory. the chump at SE support told me that there was a viewer add on on the CD that came with it. i can't find anything like that? ( i think the "expert" is thinking of the P800 CD ). well, i used the P800 CD i still have and installed the viewer add ons from that onto the P900. IT WORKED, it now see's the Word documents but the excel spread sheets still take longer to open than on my P800. ( the expert said it was not a good idea and wouldn't work ) well, if the phone did what it said i wouldn't have tried it. i also loaded the games from the P800 onto the 900, they played but the colours were all wrong. funny thing though, in the latest " what cellphone ", they show stuntrun on the P900 and the colours are right. is this a photoshop con???

Err..my Viewer works. I open the Viewer app and it sees the documents on Duo card in the Documents/unfiled directory. Word docs open without a problem. I did not need to install any additional Viewer s/w.

The applications CD which came with my p900 has the viewers in them to download. I suppose the colour difference of the games is because the games for p800 are optimised for 4056(this number may slightly wrong I can't be bothered to search, lol

) while p900 works with a colour scheme of 65000 (again not the acurate number)

Do you have an Orange, O2 or generic P900?
