hello @mcc6025, the current limit for Table Fields (including deleted Fields) is 100.

do you have deleted Fields in that Table?? if you do, and you’d like for us to permanently delete them so you can continue adding more Fields, let me know and we can support that.

Hi there 👋, Do you have any timeline to increase the number of fields? In most case I’m splitting records (using linked records for example) and it’s ok. However, when we are creating dashboard it can be very useful to have records (\>\>100 fields) loaded and displayed continuously. The advantage is that the information displayed are always up to date (no need for triggers on timers to refresh). It’s also convenient for analytics to get all info in one table.

I think some type of solution to make linked records and tables more useful should be investigated. As you said @pte right now you are limited in how you can interact with data if it is spread across multiple tables. It would be useful to be able to create temporary tables for analysis, as you can in SQL I believe. This may also address some use-cases for [looping or nested triggers.](https://community.tulip.co/t/request-for-feedback-looping-and-nested-triggers/2843/2)
