Default Maximum Number Of Worksheets In A Work Book-Not A Memory Issue????

Hi there,
I have a worbook that currently has 145 worksheets in it and a file size of
10,094kb. It will not allow me to add more, nor move worksheets from one
place to another.

I was told this could be cuased by lack of memory, so my IT department has
already doubled my memory to 1 GB, but it did not correct the problem.

I can still add data to the spreadhseet and save, however I cannot add anymore
worksheets. The workbook does have macro's and is linked in multiple
places. All functionality has been normal until yesterday.

Do you have any ideas.?

Your system RAM normally has notihing to do with it. XL maintains it's own
memory pool. The size of that pool depends on your version of XL. Look in the
task manager to determine how much memory XL is using (this can be very
different from the file size) and compare that to the infomration found on
this site...
