Limits on number of columns

[Milli]

I have a spreadsheat which will have approximately 200
columns when all is said and done. This will be used as a
data doc for a merge to be performed in Word. Are there
any known problems that I should be aware of in this
situation?

Thanks for any help or hints you may provide.

The following MSKB article explains the limits for various data sources.
For Excel you could use all 256 columns:
