There are no limitation (within reason - 4GB total on most systems these days) on the file itself. The tools that you use to read/write it, however, may have some limits.

As barton said, the only limitation is due to the filesystem limits. The applications themselves may have problems reading the file, however. For instance, most people will read a *.csv file in with MS Excel. Excel has a limit of 65535 rows and 255 columns. All the data should still be accesible however.
