Excel Maximum size ?

Gustav

I am running a Stock Control system created in Excel with VLookup /
calculations and links that is currently 66Mb file size. I am worried that I
may run into difficulties with such large Excel files? Is excel stable with
calculating on such file sizes ?

In my experience, Excel is very stable, even with large file sizes. The
Microsoft link below relates to Excel's limits, but doesn't mention file
size. I imagine it depends on system resources and/or available
memory.

I haven't managed to crash a workbook yet. The large ones can get a
bit slow on calculations, but I've never had one fail.

I'd say you're pretty safe.
