Next time direct your question to the PEAR General List ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) to get a much more useful answer. This is due to the default mode of Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer creating an Excel 7 (or maybe 6) compatible spreadsheet which has these string limitations. If you change the version of spreadsheet it is creating you will not have these problems. I don't know the exact commands or versions to set it to but check the documentation or search the archives of pear-general. I know for sure it is in the pear-general archives as this question has been asked and answered many times. Adam Ashley signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

RE: [PHP] Limitation on PEAR : Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer
Does your text get truncated or turned into hash '#' signs? I know that Excel has some limits regarding how many characters will go into a text column. There is also a 64k row limit as well, but most sane people wouldn't use a spreadsheet to handle such a dataset. George -Original Message- From: Kristen G.
