4096 Columns should be enough for anyone.

I'm constantly having to compromise with the physical limitations of my database, such as having to pick and choose which attributes to delete, as the tables in my Oracle database reached it's 1000 column limit a long time ago. While these limits have forced me clean up the data and consolidate, it's a major annoyance that I shouldn't have to deal with[^].

Any database table with a 1,000 columns should be flagged for restructuring. That is indeed a horror.

Wow, there is also a summary table, I suppose. :-D

In my system, each participant is a row, and each response is a column. I think he confuses relational databases with excel sheets :omg:
What's the difference? ;P

No, the title was a play on the Gates thing. :)

I felt dirty hitting Access's 255 column limit. X|

TRCH (The Real Coding Horror) is in my opinion the database design. As comparison... For performance reasons we have a separate database intended for read-access, to which we copy the data in a less relational manner. The result is a few flat tables with a horrible number of columns. Still the worst one only has 160 columns...
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

Excel spreadsheets are prettier. Eventually, they'll upgrade their Oracle database to Excel.

(again on the Gates thing...) Well, 255 columns should be enough for anyone!
To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities.

Yes, and also terminate the database architect who came up with the idea.

I am sorry to tell you that limitations like this exist in many places. For example you can not display this data since DataGrids have a limitation of 65000 pixel width. As you can see I marked this as news ;)

I am curious about what you will save in 1000 columns? :confused::~
Greetings from Germany
Datamining apps require many precomputed columns one can easily reach more than 1000 columns
