Default Excel Row Limitation

Currently, there are only 65,536 rows available in my EXCEL spreadsheets. I
work with large amounts of data which necessitates the usage of multiple
spreadsheets. Is there any way to expand the number of rows available?

Thank you,

Scott

If there were some way to do this, then 65,536 would not be the limit!
Excel 2007 has 1 million rows
best wishes

Default Excel Row Limitation

Hi,

I strongly recommend that you consider 2007 it has 1,048,576 rows and 16,384
columns.

However, in 2003 you can install the web spreadsheet component and imbed it
within the regular spreadsheet. To do this right click any toolbar and
choose Control Toolbox. Click the More Controls button and find the
Microsoft Office Spreadsheet component. If there are more than one pick the
lastest one, maybe 11, and click in you spreadsheet. Version 11 has 262,144
rows and ZZZ columns (18,278). Interestingly, this is more columns the 2007
but less rows. You play with this tool and see if you can use it to some
advantage.

Default Excel Row Limitation

Thanx to everyone for your advice. I found out that my company has a site
license for EXCEL 2007 and have downloaded it. I'm trying to combine two
worksheets that go over 65,536 rows using copy and paste from one to another
and keep getting an error. Is there something special I need to do in order
to add rows above the 65,536 row limitation?

Thanx,

Scott
