Hi
I have Excel 2007, how can I get more than 256 column in one spreadsheet. I
know that the 2007 version allows up to 16000 columns, so please help.... I
need to insert the data one by one.

If you have an .xls file you need to save as a .xlsx or .xlsm and then close
the file. When you re-open you will have full xl2007 functionality.

Hi Bachadega,

You can only get more than 256 columns if you're working in Excel 2007's native mode - not in the 97-2003 compatability mode.
