SQL query Output exceeds 65000 rows in excel

Question

Hi,
I have a SQL file attached to my concurrent program. The query in the SQL file returns tab separated output that i need to email as a csv through the same SQL file.
The issue I am facing is that the query returns about 157000 records but only 65536 are being displayed in the excel worksheet.
How can I get all the records by accommodating them in multiple worksheets of the same excel file?
Please help!
I am using EBS 11i.
Code I am using in SQL file:
set pages 3000
set lines 300
set heading off
set term off
set feedback off
set verify off
set echo off
set serverout off
spool /tmp/TEST.csv
select 'Header'
from dual
SELECT column1||CHR(9)||column2
FROM staging_table
spool off
set lines 1000 pages 40 head off echo off veri off
select 'cd /tmp; cat $XX_TOP/install/sql/disclaimer.txt > x.dat; cat '||'/tmp/TEST.csv'||' | uuencode '||'/tmp/TEST.csv'
||' > '||substr('/tmp/TEST.csv',1,length('/tmp/TEST.csv')-4)||'.dat >> x.dat'
||' ; mail -s ''' ||'&1'||''' '||'&2'||' < x.dat'
||' ; rm '||substr('/tmp/TEST.csv',1,length('/tmp/TEST.csv')-4)||'.dat'||' ;'
from dual
list
spool /tmp/email.txt
spool off
host chmod 777 /tmp/email.txt
host /tmp/email.txt
Thanks

Answer 1

open a blank Excel (2007 version), go to Data tab, then from External Data click From Text, select the CSV file (That having more than 65k records), click import, then from "start import at row" select 65001 and click next button, select delimiter as Comma, click Next button and filaly finish.
In this way you will have the data after 65k rows in excel. Now you can simply open that cvs file in excel then you will have first 65k records (remening part will be discarded).
So now you have two excel files and you can paste it in two diff tab.
Note - you can repeate this activity if you have more than 130000 records...
