might be a function of your column width or ht. Have you tried using alt
enter at the place where you want the text to break

I've done the following in Office XP (2002) standard for students and
teachers: under format cells, then allignment then wrap text. However,
while
some text actually wraps, some inputs (after utilizing alt-enter break to
start another sentence - but not always) will NOT wrap. Inconsistent.
This
applies to whether I type the entry or paste the text. In order to
display
the text for printing purposes, I need the text to wrap and not be one
long
sentence. I could cheat by making page breaks but this wastes time plus
makes it difficult to copy and paste neatly into Word. All advice on web
says
to click on wrap text - been there, done that. It seems so silly. What am
I
doing wrong? Thanks.
