I would like EXCEL LET ME ASSING AN UNLIMITED NUMBERS OF COLUMNS IN THE
SPREADSHEET, BECAUSE I NEED TO WORK WITH MORE COLUMNS. AND I CAN'T MODIFY
THE MAXIMUM LIMIT NUMBER OF COLUMNS IT HAS FOR DEFAULT. THE EXCEL 2003 HAS A
LIMITED NUMBER OF 256 COLUMNS THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO MODIFY. I NEED
TO WORK WITH MORE THAN 256 COLUMNS, I THINK IT COULD BE IN ORDER ABOUT 3000
OF COLUMNS OR BETTER THAN THAT, IT WOULD BE AWESOME THAT I CAN ASSIGN THE
NUMBER OF COLUMNS NEED TO WORK WITH.

Hi

I's almost impossible for me to imagine a situation, where so many columns
are needed - usually in my projects I don't use more than 20. I think it's
extremly cumbersome to use, when all needed columns are not visible on
screen for user at once. My advice is to change your project's design.

PS. Please don't shout!
