Unfortunately many people use it as a database then complain when it is
slow.
I imagine that abuse was further encouraged when they added over 1 million
rows.


Yes - I cannot IMAGINE any sane person using Excel with that amount of
data - and I'm a retired (just!) Systems and Management Accountant...



I agree but 65000 rows was a limit that I bumped against constantly.
I work with a database with about 75000 SKU's and customer sales history
that commonly exceeded the row limit. I was glad to see the increase.
While most of what I needed could be done in Access sometimes it's just
easier for me to do it in Excel.
