I have a csv file that I try to import into Excel and the number of rows is
larger thatn 65536. The Excel 2000 seemed to be only capable of loading 65536
rows. Is there a way to overcome this ?

Me thinks you need an Access solution.

Nope... 65,536 rows and 256 columns are written in stone. See the hundreds
of other posts with this exact subject.

Start another Worksheet and then import the remaining portion of your CSV file by using the Text Import
Wizard.

Please note: The instructions below are for Microsoft Excel 2003, but should work in Microsoft Excel 2000.


Insert a new worksheet

Import a text file
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...573861033.aspx

When you get to step 5, you should have the "Text Import Wizard - Step 1 of 3" dialog up. In Step 1 of the
Text Import Wizard, change the value next to "Start import at row" to 65537.



In addition, you might want to take a look at this program called CSVed. It is an easy and powerful CSV file
editor.

If you must load the data into Excel, you will have to either load only a
sample of your data (e.g. every tenth record); or use multiple worksheets.

Both of those solutions require VBA programming.

If this is a large DB, you should look for a different solution (e.g. Microsoft
Access).

One way to oversome this limitation is to split your csv file into smaller
files which can be imported to separate worksheets.
