Excel Error When Adding New Column

I have a large database (approx. 8,000 rows by 80 columns). When I try to add a column, I often get the following error:
To prevent possible loss of data, Microsft Excel cannot shift nonblank cells off the worksheet. Try to delete or clear the cells to the right and below the data. Then select cell A1 and save your workbook to reset the last cell used. Or, you can move the data to a new location and try again.


I am not sure what these people did to this database, but I have never seen this error appear before. Any ideas?
