Whilst the number of rows in Excel goes down to 65536, the colums only go across to IV (or 256 of them). If there anyway to extend this?
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
ds_robb,

In a standarsheet this is the limit we have to face.

However, by using The spreadsheetcomponent (OWC)and place it on a UserForm we can access approximated 18.000 columns and over 260.000 rows. These components are only available for 2000 and above.

However, this require some coding and special consideration before it can run.

If You really need more columns You may consider to us Quattro Pro, which also have 18.000 columns available.

Kind regards,
Dennis
