By how many bits it takes to store the number of rows or columns. 256 is 2^8 (one byte) 65536 is 256 x 256 or 2^16 (two bytes) To change this would take a redesign of Excel and almost certainly much bigger files. So it is a "Specification Limit" and you will find "specification limits" if you look in HELP.- --- HTH, David McRitchie, Microsoft MVP - Excel [site changed Nov. 2001] My Excel Pages: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/excel.htm Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "Ashima Gera" <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:00E1926E-FD72-4ACC-B803-9D18BA1912F5@microsoft.com... > What limits the size of an Excel worksheet ? > Why 65537 columns and 256 Rows?
dmcritchieAshima I'm afraid that it is the design. the limit is considered a reasonable size for a spreadsheet. You can split data accross worksheets if necessary. If you are using Excel as a large database for say 200k parts you would be better using a proper database such as Access or FoxPro Regards Peter >-----Original Message----- >What limits the size of an Excel worksheet ? >Why 65537 columns and 256 Rows? >. >

Autofill across worksheets
I maintain a list of custom items that are in production. Each item has a sku and an associated description. I am looking for a way to autofill the description when typing in the sku. My thought is to link two worksheets together where one of them would contain a master list of all sku's and their descriptions. This master list is being exported from another application. Currently the sku and description are in separate columns. Also, if there is an alternate way of doing this please let me know.

Printing Color-Coded Worksheet in Black & White Mode in Excel 2003
I work with farily complex Excel worksheets which require print outs as both hard copy and PDF.

However, this function basically converts everyting color-coded to black & white, including cell shading patterns; I normally accentuate certain important cells by shading them in black and using a white font color.

Opening two separate instances of Excel
My users (who are accountants) use dual monitors and would like to open a different Excel file on each monitor for the purposes of reviewing changes between the two.

Unfortunately, the software that my users use to organize the Excel files does not allow this to be done; it always opens every Excel file in the first Excel window no matter which instance is highlighted.
