Default How long Excel can handle functions?


Dear Excel Experts,

I have one quick question: how long can Excel (2003) handle
mathematical formulas or logical functions in one cell?

Thanks so much ...

Other limits may apply also, such as a maximum of 7 nested functions within a
formula in a cell.

Use Excel's Help and search for Specifications to find out more.
