Default Long text gets cut off in the cell

Excel's help says that it'll display 1024 characters (all 32767 will appear in
the formula bar).

If you add alt-enters (to force new lines within the cell) every 80-100
characters, you'll see far more than the 1024 limit that excel's help gives.

I am using Excel 2003 and I need to enter a long text into a cell. But
although the entire text gets displayed in the formular bar, it's cut off in
the cell no matter how I format the column. Please help.

Thanks!
