Marco,

When exporting to Excel from QV the data will get split across sheets every 65536 rows even though you use a newer version of Excel that can handle more.

The reason for this implementation is backwards compatibility.

Excel used to have a limit for 65536 rows with their old BIFF format, before moving over to OOXML and support for more rows.

In order to support the older versions, QV exports a maximum of 65536 rows to each sheet when you do a Send to Excel.

Hi,

    Its because you are using 2003 version of excel.

 

    Excel 2007 has more storage capability. install excel 2007 and check the difference.
