Can I increase the number of coumns in a worksheet?
 
Currently, maximum columns is 256.
How do I increase it to say 400 columns in one worksheet?

In your existing version, as-is, it's not possible to increase (I just moved
into using xl2003, and the col limit is still 256 <g). But if the number of
rows in your table (inclusive header row) never exceeds 256, it might be
viable to consider transposing the entire table into a new sheet. Select the
source table copy. In a new sheet, right-click on A1 Paste special
check "Values" & "Transpose" OK

Hi Lee

In addition to Max's suggestion, the next version of XL, XL2007, will
have 16,000 columns and 1 million rows.
It is in Beta format currently and will probably not be available as a
final product until early next year.

You can't.

One option would be to download the beta version of XL 2007 which gives you
16000 columns.
