Hi Carlos,

Not in one sheet. Use another sheet for the 2nd part.
Or wait for the new Excel version (probably end this year), which will have
many more columns.

You can't do what you want, but... How about only creating a column for each
*work* day? Leaving out weekends and holidays may get you down to 256 columns.

Very good!

Or use Rows instead of Columns

What would happen if you numbered the columns 1-256 on "Sheet1" and 255-365
on "Sheet2"?
