    Copy-Paste Character Limit in Excel - what to do

    I am using Excel 2000 (my company will not upgrade). Whenever I copy and paste data (from such sources as Access), there seems to be a 256 character limit per cell of the pasted data. Is there a way to remove this limit; that is to increase the character limit so that copying data will paste all the data into Excel?

    Thank you!

    Hi - While 256 characters of text is a physical cell limitation, I wonder if you can split a very long Access field into multiple parts as an idea? This link might also share a few ideas. Good luck
