in thread Unable to show large number of records in excel

True indeed (for Excel 97-SR2):

Q:\>perl -le "print $_ for 1..16383" >list.xls Q:\>start list.xls Q:\>perl -le "print $_ for 1..32768" >list.xls Q:\>start list.xls Q:\>perl -le "print $_ for 1..70000" >list.xls Q:\>start list.xls # "Excel did not load the whole file"

So the problem seems to lie elsewhere, like maybe not enough memory or other problems
