Maximum number of rows of CSV data in excel sheet

Question

It is known that Excel sheets can display a maximum of 1 million rows. Is there any row limit for csv data, i.e. does Excel allow more than 1 million rows in csv format?

Answer 1

Using the Excel Text import wizard to import it if it is a text file, like a CSV file, is another option and can be done based on which row number to which row numbers you specify. See: This link

Answer 2

In my memory, excel (versions >= 2007) limits the power 2 of 20: 1.048.576 lines.

Csv is over to this boundary, like ordinary text file. So you will be care of the transfer between two formats.

Answer 3

CSV files have no limit of rows you can add to them. Excel won't hold more that the 1 million lines of data if you import a CSV file having more lines.

Excel will actually ask you whether you want to proceed when importing more than 1 million data rows. It suggests to import the remaining data by using the text import wizard again - you will need to set the appropriate line offset.
