Default How do I fix getting #### rather than text in a text cell?

Change the format to General (from Text).

When typing in a text cell, and entry becomes lengthy, I see #### filling the

It is similar to when you type in a numeric field and the number is too long
to display. I already turn on word wrap and auto adjust the row height.
