12.Define whether the Section is in list format. This setting appears in the 
light purple columns (18–19).
If the Section will present the data in a list format, enter the word 
“yes”. Otherwise, enter the word “no”. The following diagram 
shows data presented in a list format:
Only if your section is in list format: In the Expense Type cell, 
enter the number of the row or column where the expense 
description will be placed. Expense amounts can be entered in 
several different columns or rows if required by your template. 
Expense type labels must all appear in the same column.
13.
Enter the row or column numbers for the expense types that appear in the 
Section.
 These settings appear in the aqua columns (20–48).
For these settings, simply enter the row or column number for the 
expense types that you want to appear in the Section. Note that the 
same row or column number can be used more than once. An 
example of this would be meals that encompass breakfast, lunch, 
dinner, and snacks. In the previous example, all expense items 
would be populated into row/column 4 of the custom Expense 
Report.
14.
Complete the table. All of the remaining columns (49–57) in the table 
are used to define the column or row number that corresponds to 
the description.

15.Mark a Section for prepaid expenses (yellow column). If a row in the map 
table is for prepaid (company paid) expenses, type a “yes” in the 
cell on that Section’s row. Type “no” in all the cells of this column 
that do not pertain to prepaid expenses.
16. Repeat steps 9 through 15 for each Section that you have defined 
for your custom Expense Report. 
17.
Map Expense Report Options dialog (magenta section). The Expense 
Report Options dialog has five fields where you can fill in data for 
the header on your expense report. Use this section to specify the 
row and column on your template where this information will be 
mapped. 
Because header data is not related to any particular Section, you 
have to fill in only one row. If the item does not appear on your 
template, leave these cells blank.
Using applications other than Microsoft Excel
You can use applications other than Microsoft Excel (such as Lotus 
1-2-3 or Quattro Pro) to open and manipulate the Expense data on 
your computer. The data file is named “Expense.txt,” and is stored in 
the Expense folder, within the folder containing the handheld user 
data.
Expense data in the Expense.txt file is in tab-delimited format. 
						

							Appendix C Page 253
Expense file details
The Expense.txt file contains four groups of data. It will be easier to see 
these four distinct groups of data if you open the file with a 
spreadsheet application.
Trips
Shows the number of Expense application 
categories, and lists each one followed by an 
“end” statement.
Currency
Shows how many currencies were used for the 
Expense data, and lists the countries that 
correspond to that currency.
Trip
Shows the number of expenses by category, 
and lists the expenses for each category.
Expenses
Shows the total number of expenses, and lists 
them chronologically.

Non-ASCII Characters 
for Login Scripts
The following information enables you to create custom login scripts 
that require non-ASCII characters. It is provided for advanced users 
who understand the use and requirements of such characters in a 
custom login script.
Use of ^char
You may use the caret ( ^ ) to transmit ASCII command characters. If 
you send ^char, and the ASCII value of char is between @ and _, then 
the character is automatically translated to a single-byte value 
between 0 and 31. 
For example, ^M is converted to a carriage return. If char is a value 
between a and z, then the character sequence is translated to a single-
byte value between 1 and 26. If char is any other value, then the 
character sequence is not subject to any special processing.
For example, the string “Joe^M” transmits Joe, followed by a carriage 
return.
Carriage return and line feed
You may include carriage return and line feed commands as part of 
the login script, when entered in the following format:
Sends or receives a carriage return
Sends or receives a line feed
For example, the string “waitfor Joe” waits to receive Joe 
followed by a carriage return and line feed from the remote computer 
before executing the next command in the script. 
						

							Page 256  Non-ASCII Characters for Login Scripts
Literal characters
The backslash ( \ ) character defines that the next character is 
transmitted as a literal character, and is not subject to any special 
processing ordinarily associated with that character. 
Examples:
\^Includes a caret as part of the string
