Not possible in one worksheet.
Use a second worksheet to continue.
Next version of Excel (due Fall this year) will have many more columns.

Current versions of Excel are limited to 256 columns.

Can you transpose your data set, or do you already have more than 256 rows
of data as well.

My original question came out broken up so..---the data i have takes up
800-900 columns BUT only 22 rows. the data needs to be set up like this to
be imported to a program called primer. to transpose this data, the program
does not like it. any suggestions?
