Automation will do it, but I think the limit then is 64K. After that you will need additional sheets or workbooks.

A fast way is to select an amount of data and then use

_VFP.DataToClip( , , 3)
oExcel.Paste()

This makes an array, and you are limited by the max size of an array so if you have a lot of columns you will need to paste fewer rows at a time.

Another method is to COPY TO with a small piece at a time and Workbooks.Add() each piece.

A third way is to copy to a DBF and automate opening that and saving as an XLS.

>HI,
>I have queries that may contain 100-500k of rows. I want to export them in Excel. I tried COPY TO...TYPE XL5. It only copy 16383 rows. I know that Excel is able to hold more than that. Is there another solution for it ? Ole automation surely ?
