Thumbs up Mileage tracking/logging program for PocketPC?

I own an iMate PDA2k (aka HTC Blue Angel) Windows Mobile 2003 Phone. I'm looking for a good mileage tracking / logging / fuel usage program for this platform! It would hopefully allow exporting to an Excel Spreadsheet.

If anybody has any ideas, please let me know!

I use a program called "AutoBase" for the Palm OS. Palm has some good sites listing the various additional programs available for that platform, does the PocketPC have something similar?

I use a program called TealAuto for Palm Os. I don't know if they make one compatable for you but it would hurt doing a search. It is a good program that allows you to export to Excel. It allows you to trck numerous vehicles with gas, service records, cost, it allows you to set reminders for when service must be done and even has a parking meter minder with an alarm to remind you when to check the meter.

I haven't tried it out, but a couple folks on Pocket PC forums talk about GasUpLogger http://www.kent7.com/holly/gasuplogger/ for tracking. The site's not in English, but the program appears to be.

Check this out a pocketgear.com:

Does your smartphone have Pocket Excel? (Most Windows Mobile devices do AFAIK) If so why not just set up a Spreadsheet?

That pocketgear one works great, I use it for all of my vehicles, much like most things PocketPC vs. Palm, you have more options then on the AutoBase or TealAuto.

I attached a spreadsheet I made for this exact purpose. It works fine on the computer, but on my PocketPC, every row in column K after K3 becomes "=VALUE!"
(note, the "=" in the VALUE! isn't a "=" but a "not equal to" sign, like "=/=").

Any excel gurus care to help out?

Column "I" = estimated fuel savings over my current Element. Column "J" is estimated gallons saved over my current Element.

I opened it up fine on my Pocket PC Phone (Qtek S110/imate JAM).

K3:K9 = 46.58,47.02,46.07,45.04,45.04,45.04,45.04

Check for divide by zero errors or other such errors in your formulas. For instance, G7 through Gn all have divide by zero errors (#DIV/0!)

Yea, I don't know how to get ride of the divide by zero errors. As soon as i input the values for A thru E the divide by zero error disappears but i don't know how to automatically carry the formula over to the next row.

As far as the pocketPC, when I use the blank spreadsheet and start inputting figures the **** VALUE error appears after row 3.... it's strange.
