Hi Everybody,
Just a code snippet to handle the MaxRows (65536) in a
sheet while copying a recordset object on to a workbook.
It dynamically adds a sheet if required to handle any
number of rows
Its just that I have been researching this problem (not a
bug :-) ) for some time, I thought some one might need a
reference.

Thanks
Ravee.
