Tabs in 2003

[show22]

Does anyone know if there are a maximum number of tabs for one work book in 2003 like there are a mximum number of columns on one sheet? Also I have heard that if there are too many sheets then it can damage the integrity of the file as a whole. Is there any support to this?

Thanks for your help!

Per Microsoft (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel/HP051992911033.aspx) the maximum sheets per workbook in Excel 2003 is only limited by available memory.

That being said, yes, a large number of complex sheets within a workbook (or even across several workbooks if they're open simultaneously) could lead to a corrupted file as it nears your system's available memory.
