If you have something in column IV (the 256th, or last, column) and you try
to insert another column you will get a message: "To prevent possible loss
of data, Microsoft Excel cannot shift nonblank cells off the worksheet." Is
this what you mean? If so, you need to delete some data to free up at least
one column. You can use CTRL+END to take you to the last used cell. This
will show you if you have anything in column IV. Perhaps you have something
there that you didn't mean to have.
