I'm trying to export 250,000 records from an MS Access table into Excel. I
have 2003, and I get a message saying I should break it up into about 65,000
record bits. I've heard that Excel 2007 can handle about 1,000,000 records.
Is that true?

xl2003 worksheets have only 65,536 rows. I don't know how many rows are in an
xl2007 worksheet, but I know it is well over 1 million.
