Hi,

Both QlikView and Excel 2010 will have performance issue displaying 1 million rows and 16,384 column.

It is advice to limit the number of rows and column in QlikView.

Here  is the article for Excel performance

Hello!

You have the limit only with excel's dimensions of rows and columns, I think.

At least you could export 1048576 rows.

But still not able to export all the columns, need to do any configuration at excel or QV.

Could you please suggest on this?

You have excel 2010 installed, but I think QV is using its own excel engine to export which is a prior to 2010 edition.

Not very sure about this, please double check it

Qlikview supports 97-2003 format which is .xls. This format only supports sheets with maximum of  65 536 rows and 256 columns. Tables larger than this limitation should be exported to Excel as comma separated (.CSV) text files instead, to get around the file format limitation.

I don't think so.

You can use a macro to export to excel but i don't advise you to do so.

Export it as a text file and then open it with excel.
