I just experimented with this scenario.

Merged a few cells in rows above.

Put some text into a cell in a row below these.

Wrap text and Autofit work OK on that row.

Do you get any movement at all when you autofit that row or does it absolutely
refuse to change height?

If that row has been manually set to a height, it won't re-size until you go
back and re-format to Autofit.

Hello,

Thanks for the information. There are merged cells in other rows above this
in the columns that the row appears in (But not in the row the problem is
occurring in). Would this affect it?

Autofit does not work on wrapped text in "merged" cells.

You can resize manually or via Macro. Jim Rech has written
code for this.

Also revised code for special cases.

The best cure is DON"T USE MERGED CELLS. They cause no end of problems with
copying, pasting, sorting, filtering.

When formatting a cell with text wrapping, the row is not automatically
increasing in height to account for extra text. Therefore, some text is
hidden. Is there something that can be done while formatting for wrapping so
that this will not occur.
