We want to download PO long texts into excel using READ_TEXT. However, if my long text contains more than 32,767 characters the extra characters are not downloaded completely because the limit in Microsoft excel is 32,767 chars per cell. If you have faced similar issue and fixed it, please let me know how we can write the remaining characters to the same cell or next cell in the excel?

As you say, the limit is 32,767 characters in one cell, so I don't get how you can get more...

Just write the rest to other cells.
