Losing data on Excel import

Hi,

Can anyone provide a solution to a problem I am facing when I do an export of a chart into Excel.  I have a column that has a paragraph of text and when this is exported to Excel it seems to truncate the words to just the first 250 words.  I have checked the chart and there are more words than this. Is this a restriction in Qlikvew or Excel?

Regards

Jamill.

Hi,

Thanks for responding - it does not matter which version of Excell it is just seems to truncate to the first 250 words.  By the way I was using Excel 2007.
