maximum number of fields that can be created in a table

hi...
I would like to know about maximum number number of fields that can be created in a table. my requirement is to meet data entry in morethan 300 fields. I am using SQL 2000. if impossible is there any other method to incorporate additional fields?
Please reply as soon as possible.
linHi linsha,

from memory its 1024 for SQL2k.

I would suggest you take a look again at the data structure and see if you can do some normalisation - take a look at this article for some background reading if required.
