Can I add more columns beyond col. IV?

[Rick_B]

I realize this may be a elementary question to most, but I hope there'
a fix.

I'm making a spreadsheet that requires about 10 more columns (beyon
column IV) than the normal new Excel file allows (to the would-b
column JE). Is there any way for me to extend the sheet and add mor
columns?

Thanks

No, you are limited to 256 columns

You can't. Maybe you need to think about switching to Access??

Why, that has even less with only 255

That's what I get for having the screen too far from my eyes .. <sg>

LOL - Good point

Just a thought .. since Ken didn't talk about this <g>

If the number of rows are all and always <= 256,
maybe transposing the sheet layout would be an option ?

You might consider Quattro Pro. It doesn't have a 256 column limit.
