Importing files into Excel
I have a huge 9mb DAT file that I have saved as a .txt document and want to open it into excel. When I try to do this a message comes up to say the file is not completely loaded becasue there are more than 65536 rows of data. How can I open the whole document or split the data into seperate tabs to fit it in?
RE: importing files into Excel
Hi Tim
Excel can support up to 65,536 rows or records. If you have more records than that you will need to split your data into chunks that are smaller than this limit before importing. I'm not aware of an automatic method of doing this. Alternatively you may wish to consider using a database to store your information (e.g. Access)
I hope this helps
Kind regards,
Andrew
