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

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

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

        (again on the Gates thing...) Well, 255 columns should be enough for anyone!

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

            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[^].

            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 ;)

              Are you sure that the database isnt confusing about rows and columns? Are the needed? Who has to deal with such a lot of columns? :confused::confused::confused:

                  Datamining apps require many precomputed columns one can easily reach more than 1000 columns

                    I think the original poster was goofing. What possible entity could have 4000 attributes?

                    I didn't get any requirements for the signature

                      For 1000 columns, all can be done is to emit a fatwa for the db "architect". ("Tell me, people, am I going insane?" - Black Sabbath - Sabotage, 1975, "Am I going insane (Radio)").
