In Excel, as well as most other spreadsheet applications, a row is a grouping of cells that run from the left to right of a page and a column is a grouping of cells that run from the top to the bottom of a page. Rows run horizontally in an Excel worksheet. They are identified by a number in the row header. There are 65,536 rows in each Excel worksheet. The intersection point between a row and a column is a cell, which is the basic storage unit for data in a spreadsheet.
