Dear all,

I can get the maximum limit of Excel (vary on different version) by using,
e.g. Rows.Count and Columns.Count), and I'd like to know how I can get the
maximum number of character per a formula? (E.g. 1024 for Excel 2003), or
more generally, how I can get all Excel build-in constants?

Thanks,

the constants are in the type library.

See Chip Pearson's downloads page:

TLIUtils.

You can view them manually in the object browser.

You can search Excel help for limitations for limits in Excel.

there is no constant for maximum number of characters in a formula and to
the best of my knowledge, it hasn't changed between versions.
