Helper IExcel memory
Hi, Dennis_Pedersen
I think Excel is capable of handling much larger amounts of data, here is some documentation which states that the .xls file format has a limit of 65536 rows per sheet of paper and the .xlsx file format has a limit of 1048576 rows per sheet of paper; you can try upgrading Excel or just work with your data in Power BI Desktop.

Helper INo I do not think it is a general problem with excel.
We normally handle much more data.
So it has something to do with a problem when excel is connected to a analysis service cube
