Currently in Excel you are limited by the amount of columns you can have
A -
IV (256 columns).
I want to be able to fit all the days of the year + at least another 30
extra columns. I think that 390-400 columns would do just perfectly OR let
it
do the full alphabet from A-ZZ.
I use Excel as office calander planner for holidays and need to have the
days of the week running across. Having the Dates Running down the rows
just
does not work for me.
I know that excel is limited by memory, but with so many advances in
Memory
now, surely this would not be an issue anymore.
