Excel Spreadsheet Transfer

How do I transfer an Excel spreadsheet from my laptop to my Nokia Lumia 820?

Connect your phone to the laptop using the normal cable, then copy the excel into the document folder of your phone. That's about it.

Thanks that worked ok, but it wont let me edit the spreadsheet.

On WP, excel cant edit .xls files, they need to be in the newer .xlsx format.

This is how Microsoft handles its own products. The editing of .xlsx is also very limited.

So the only way to add data is on a laptop and then transfer to phone?

Or save them in .XLSX, the newer format. Then you can at least edit somehow.
