text: how many possible rows and cells are in a microsoft excel ws?   you can check it yourself. go to excel and press ctrl+down, this will go to the last row which is 65536. then press ctrl+right, which will go to the last column which is iv.   i once tried to keep pressing the down button to see the last row when my friend came to me and showed me how to see the last row and columns. lol, i was bored at that time
