DBS/DBSW Limitation

Is there a server configuration parameter that controls how many DBS formulas you can have in a single workbook? I have an input template with 300 lines of DBS formulas in it but the cube will only accept the first 35 lines of data. This is 10.2.2. FP4. When I load up a VM on my laptop of just plain 10.2.2 then I can have as many DBS formulas as I want. Here are the contents of the tm1s.cfg file of the affected server:

Code: Select all

More likely to be an issue with Excel. Is Excel calculating properly? Is Excel properly licensed?

AFAIK, Excel is properly licensed. This is at a large corporate client and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't cheat. It also happens for every person that tries to use the workbook not just one. It also has the 35 cell limitation on TM1Web too.

A bit of a long shot but the rows below 35 wouldn't be formatted as text by any chance would they? I know that in the past I've seen some formulas that don't recalculate properly if the format is changed to text, even though they continue to display correctly provided that they aren't edited. It's not a universal problem and I haven't seen it in ages, but it can sometimes be a "sneaker".
