[excel] Is it possible to see more than 65536 rows in Excel 2007?

I have an excel file which has more than 65536 rows. However, I can see only first 65536 of them. Is it possible to see all of them in Excel 2007?

This question is related to excel

Yes, the new limit is approximately 1 million rows.

I have found that the 65536 limit still applies to pivot tables, even in Excel 2007.


I am not 100% sure where all of the other suggestions are trying to go, but the issue is basically related to the extension that you have on the file. If you save the file as a Excel 97/2003 workbook it will not allow you to see all million rows. Create a new sheet and save it as a workbook and you will see all million. Note: the extension will be .xlsx


According to this MSDN entry, the limit is 1 million rows. You could be running in compatibility mode, which would limit you to the old standard of 65k. Does your excel say compatibility mode in the title? If so, you can save the file as a new style file under the "save as" menu, or change your default to always use the 2007 file standard.


Yes, the new limit is approximately 1 million rows.

Excel 2003, doesn't included 1M row features, Introduced in 2007 onwards.

In Excel2007, save as "normal" Excel file, not a backwards compatible one.

You may have to close and re-open Excel to get the full 1M rows
