= SUMMARY =

Page 99 of the “Reference to Microsoft Word” manual (for both versions 3.0 and 4.0) incorrectly states that there is no limit to the number of entries in an array formula.

The maximum number of arguments in an array formula in Word is 39. This limit is independent of the dimensions of the array.

Note: In Microsoft Word 5.0, page 785 of the User’s Guide correctly indicates that 39 arguments are the maximum for an array.
