Excel Plugin

Will an excel document containing formulas & functions be fully functional after compiling into iOS? I am unable to test this as I do not yet have a apple developer account Thanks for your comments and help :)

The excel plugin simply loads the spreadsheet in a webview. So one way to test it would be to save your spreadsheet on a server (Dropbox, etc), and then use the standard webbrowser on your iOS device (mobile Safari) to load the spreadsheet.

I used a product called webworksheet ($50) to convert Excel spreadsheets into HTML. Then I added the HTML screen into my app with functional data entry fields, formulas, etc. I was able to create a payment calculator for a used car business doing this.
