    Copying data in seperate columns into one colum - very large data set

    Hello Everyone

    I am currently playing with a very large data set (510 rows, 755 colums). In order for this data to be input into the database of the software I am using, each column has to be pasted beneath eachother into one column. This is the macro I have been usuing to do this (found on a forum - I don't know how to write my own).

    This macro works well when I have small amounts of data to move about but when I try it with my real data I get the error message: "Run time error '6': Overflow". I'm not sure what this means and I am a novice when it comes to coding so the report from debugging means little to me, only hilghting that there is a bug in the line:

    The macro effectivly copies cells into the first column up to row 33150, but there should be 385000 rows if it was sucsessful.

    I am also only using a 32bit version of Excel. I have been informed that this version of Excel has problems with files over 2GB and mine is 2.5GB, could this be the problem?

    Help is appreciated, thankyou!
