Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
I opened the attached Excel 1997-2003 spreadsheet that has a lot of columns (one for every day of the year, plus a few more). However OpenOffice.org Calc will only display the columns up until "IV". That means that the last 3 months of the year are not visible.
Please fix this.

Please increase the column limit to match at least the limit of MS Excel (which is currently at 16k).
btw: KSpread supports 32k.
The objective must be the compatibility between all those office solutions.
Another important question:
Why is the limit statically implemented [hardcoded] on application level? Wouldn't it be smarter to
define it per spreadsheet [or even omit an explicit limit] say have a dynamic solution?
This is the logical sequence of Bug 31612, [which had been in pipe already 4 years]
