SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Excel, when you use the Data Form command, the maximum number
of fields that you can edit in a database varies by version of Microsoft
Excel. The maximum number of fields for each version for Excel is listed
in the following table.
On page 371 of the "User's Guide," version 5.0, the note at the bottom of the page implies that you can view the first 32 fields of a database that contains more than 32 fields. This note may be misleading. To use a data form with a database that contains more than 32 fields, you must select fewer than 32 fields before you click Form on the Data menu. RESOLUTION
If you receive any of the error messages listed in the previous table, use
either of the following methods:
MORE INFORMATIONWhen you use the Data Form in Microsoft Excel versions 5.0 and later, Microsoft Excel "wraps" the edit boxes in the Data Form so that all edit boxes are visible on the screen. Because earlier versions of Microsoft Excel do not do this, edit boxes in Data Forms in Microsoft Excel versions 4.0 and earlier may not be visible on the screen; they are "pushed" off of the bottom edge of the screen and, therefore, are not accessible for editing.
