Thanks for the reply, Dick. The spreadsheet is an index of reports being
processed. As each report is opened for processing, the code reads a number
of text strings and writes these strings into a "template" Excel file. If I
set the heights prior to writing the text, the text is truncated; both the
height and width are set, and text overflowing those borders doesn't show.
I wish there was a row height setting of "at least" (like there is with Word
tables). BTW, I've got XL2k, if that makes a difference.

How is the data getting into Excel? If you set all the row heights to
25.5
before the data is entered, then only those rows that need it should
expand.
I didn't test that though. If you can't set the row height before the
data,
then I think you're stuck with iterating through them.

I create a spreadsheet using code. Several columns are formatted with
Wrap
Text on, so if there is a lot of text, the row expands to handle it. If
there isn't, though, I wind up with some comparatively skinny rows. I
would
like to set all my rows heights to at least 25.5; if, however, text in
the
row is making row height greater then 25.5, don't touch it. (Several
answers to the first post gave me code to set every row to 25.5. Thank
you,
but that will set expanded too narrow to read all the text inside.)

At the moment, the only way I can think of to accomplish this is by
iterating through every row using the code below. That's a lot of time
over
several thousand rows. Is there a faster way to accomplish this using a
range?

For iRow = numRow To 2 Step -1
If Rows(iRow).RowHeight < 25.5 Then
Rows(iRow).RowHeight = 25.5
End If
Next iRow
