Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 14011
Number of columns in a spreadsheet limited to 256

Isn't it about time someone moved beyond 256 columns in a spreadsheet, allowing 65536 columns would mark out OpenOffice as a more advanced spreadsheet than Excel. I find I need this capacity a lot at work, with a lesser need for more than 65536 rows. Something like 2^24 or 2^32 in both directions would be good, but you might have to leave this as an option, both to maintain compatibility with lesser spreadsheets and to keep file sizes down.
Hi, before submitting a bug try at least a simple query. E.g. query open speadsheet issues that contain '256' in the summary does find #1633. -> double Best regards, Peter *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 1633 ***
