    Hi,

    Just wondering if any of you could tell me how many worksheets one can have in an excel file?

    Thanks!

    In theory it's limited by memory (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel/HP051992911033.aspx),

    but Excel 2003 crashes out part way through when I try to duplicate 4096 blank sheets, though there's still plenty of memory on my PC. (2GB)

    (Just select all sheets, under Move/copy choose to copy. repeat.)

    And using macros to add them one by one, excel fell down at the 30000 area, and was acting badly after 8000.

    Oh that's brilliant I only need to put about 300 worksheets in it.

    Thanks so much for your help
