Max # of Columns
 

Hello

What is the max # of columns in excel by default?
Is there a way to increase the # of columns

Thanks

You cannot increase the number of columns. It is fixed at 256 (XL2003
and earlier) or about 18K (XL2007 and later).

In Excel 2003, the maximum is 256 columns. In Excel 2007, the maximum is
16,384 columns. AFAIK there is no way to go beyond these limits.

Hope this helps,

Hutch
