RERICE,

It's my understanding that merging cells in Excel is not desirable. If you
need to make a form, its better to use borders to create regions, and
include as many cells in the borders as you need for aesthetics. You can use
"center across selection" to fine-tune some of your text positioning, and
turn off gridlines as your form is designed, leaving the borders you turned
on to view and print. HTH

I have created a form and it appears that there is a restirction on the
number of lines/characters that can go in this merged area. I am set up
as merged/wrap text/shrink to fit but after 8 lines, any following data
entered goes off the form as if "wrap text" is not there. Also, it
doesn't show up on print preview. How can I get around this, as the
requirement for this form may be much more than 8 lines?
