I use Excel to study data I'm outputting to a CSV file. My data files are typically several hundred rows by several hundred columns (200x1000, 500x500, ...). Excel supports 16384 columns, so this works fine, but PlanMaker won't work for this, since it's limited to 256 columns. It'd be nice if it supported more.

Hello,

that's because the XLS format (the dominant exchange format for PlanMaker users) supports only 256 columns. When our XLSX export filter is done, we can raise the limit.
