    How to get more than 256 columns in Excel?

    Is there any way to get more than 256 columns in Excel?

    Is there any such application available using which I can view (and edit) huge text data in grid format?

    Thanx

    It is not possible to use more as 256 columns in excel, you'd have to use more sheets.

    Well, as I said, is there any other Excel like application (to handle text data) so that I can view data in Grid? I think Access also doesn't support more that 256 columns.

    If you can afford, maybe SPSS or SAS, not sure. Will check it.
