    Excel File Start Menu Live Tile

    How do I pin an Excel file to the start menu on Windows Phone 7 to make it into a live tile? Ideally, I could also link a cell or 2 so that it showed it's value on the live tile animation. Thanks.

    The Live Tile photos will no longer display on the Start App Display

    The Live Tile photos will no longer display on the start menu even though I have right-clicked to make sure that the Live Tile is turned on. I am using the Windows 10.

    Sure, why not!
    At least on a desktop you won't use up all your data and battery in one day! *Wink

    This idea I really like. Have tiles as a gadget, instead of pinning it to the stupid menu.

    This concept makes much more sense. But yet, keep your traditional Windows 7 menu and Metro. Brilliant idea.

    Hi there.

    Live tiles COULD make it to the desktop - but they'd need to be re-sizeable. The current setup looks really STUPID on a 60 inch monitor. Re-sizeable moveable BORDERLESS (REPEAT PEEPS - BORDERLESS) tiles would be great and would be a natural follow on from Gadgets which were a brilliant idea but full of mainly useless nerdy things like Fan speeds inside your computer or traffic status in the Greenland capital of Nuuk.

    Cheers

    So long as they come with a kill switch, for those who want nothing to do with such stuff.
