One thing that also helped, in not needing to have it split it up into <i>as many</i> separate files, is that Excel 2007 can handle 2^20 rows (1,048,576) as opposed to 2003's 2^16 (65,536). Also, once you have all these separate files, you can put them all in one XLS file by adding them each as separate worksheets to the same file (the row limit is per worksheet).
