Does anyone know of a way around the 63 column limit in a table?

Use Excel.

Yeah, I thought of that...but it's a last resort. I was hoping there was
some secret that would allow me to up the number of columns.

Excel lets you have up to 256 columns, and you can copy and paste
special as a picture into Word. The result is not editable in
Word, so you need to save the Excel file in case you need to edit
the contents, but the picture will be a faithful replica of what
you see in Excel.

I believe Word 2007 may permit more columns, but that remains to be seen
(and would presumably not be backward compatible).
