max # of rows that will paste into Access

Anyone know the answer? I'm testing something out but I'm using another querying tool to get the data which is greater than 65k (excels limit), so I can't import the data I have to manually copy/paste.

If by rows you mean records, I've seen people here talk about millions of records. I don't think there is a limit.

If you have a file containing >65K records, why don't you try importing this DIRECTLY into Access as a table? Access supports a variety of file formats, and comes with a wizard to assist with most straightforward data layouts.

In other words, instead of using your "other querying tool" to export into Excel, export it into a CSV file and import that directly into Access.

Just as an FYI, Excel 2007's last row is 1048576. The 65KB limit is gone.
