Row limit in Excel
Is there a row limitation in Excel ? Reason why I ask, I have a control that
reads rows out of a Database. I have the option of creating this report by dates. With one date, it will yield 5965 rows and I can open up that report. Now with just the next day's date, it will yield 6060 rows and the Excel file will be created, but it encounters a Microsoft error. There is no difference in the data. I can in fact make the dates shift and include the date range that was failing but it wouldn't go to the current - i.e. 4/23/2004 to 3/29/05 will fail but 4/24/05 - 03/29/05 will work, and if I move the dates - 4/23/2004 to 3/28/05 will work - so it has nothing to deal with the data, but the amount of data and I have narrowed it down to row limitation. Does anyone know of a row limitation in Excel ? |
Hi
Each Excel worksheet (of which a workbook/file may contain several) is limited to 2^16 rows * 2^8 columns. Ctrl End Downarrow -in sequence, not simoultaneosly- will take you there. 6060 rows is nothing, the error is elsewhere. HTH. Best wishes Harald "Jon Chase" skrev i melding ...

Do you have the option to export your report into some format *other* than
Excel, such as a plain text file? What is your source application, by the way? Duke "Jon Chase" wrote: Does anyone know where and how I can find out what is the root of this cause ?

Yes, I can export out to a TEXT file and that works just fine. The source
application is Powerbuilder 8.0 "Jon Chase" wrote: Is there a row limitation in Excel ? Reason why I ask, I have a control that reads rows out of a Database.
