    Just wondering in the hot afternoon sun of West Africa what the last row and column of MS Office Excel worksheet and wasted about 10 minutes it's Column XFD, Row 1,048,576! What your mind can imagine when the weather is hot.

    Shouldn't be easier to visit this page: https://support.office.com/en-nz/article/Excel-specifications-and-limits-1672b34d-7043-467e-8e27-269d656771c3[^], while your are sitting in the air-conditioned room?

      Anyone who thinks he needs a million rows in Excel really needs to a shrink the data.

            Pro-Tip: Instead of spending 10 minutes scrolling, try Ctrl+Down, Ctrl+Right

                  Is there a better tool to allow users to analyze that much data?

                      You think Access or some other database is easier to use for a user than Excel? :omg: Nope. Wrong. Excel allows for quick formulas, easy charting, sorting, data entry, all way easier than any database program I've ever seen.

                        A million records in Excel is a disaster waiting to happen. Or possibly multiple disasters that have already happened -- there's no way of verifying that it is behaving correctly.
