    it is best to Create a Temp table with that number of Columns and save your calculation result to the table. note however that you cannot have More than 255 columns in ms access.
    use VBA to calculate and save the result to the table.
    you can open a Form (datasheet) and on the Open/Load event clear the temp table first, calculate and append the result to the table.
