Basic editing an Excel file

[MyLumia520 Nokia]

Fairly new to windows phone, and for the past week or so I'm playing around a bit with the office app. It's all great but I can't really do what I consider more than editing on an Excel file. For example,how can I search for something in an excel? I have hundreds of rows and columns with data and it's would be great to search for a certain text, like "carrots" or "grass"... The ONLY way I can do this is to apply a filter, which is really slow, check and uncheck boxes. Also, after creating a formula, is there a way to fill it down ???

Are there any other apps for editing office file on WP ?

Thank you.

I don't think there is any other office program for WP.

The Office on WP is fairly basic and is really on designed for review and minor edits. It doesn't handle large files very well.

We're hopeful the next version will be better.
