It's not relevant to the current discussion, but waaaay back when, I worked with a guy who had created some monster spreadsheets in Excel with something like 9,000 columns. It was working, but it was incredibly slow -- this was running on 68k Macs. Not expecting success, I suggested he give FileMaker a shot. He did, and amazingly, not only did it happily handle database definitions with 9,000 fields, it was not just faster than Excel, it was actually speedy. It had zero problems, and he built out the entirety of his solution that way.
