Good evening Rick B

Unfortunately not. Excel is limited to 256 columns and there are no
workarounds or hacks to avoid this as it is hard coded into the
program. It is a fairly big limitation and the source of constant
gripes from users but Microsoft have just seen fit to ignore it so far.
If you want to use Quatro Pro, that utilises 18,278 columns, as does
the spreadsheet in the Microsoft Office Web Compenents - but you do
lose a lot of functionality.
