This is not a problem as far as MS is concerned.

The 1024 character limit has been around for a few versions.

Excel is not considered to be a word processing program so not much effort has
been expended to add WP features and functionality.

The Alt + Enter trick is what works for now.

Same problem!! Did anyone find a way to fix it without resorting to
alt-enter?? Sounds like a common problem!!!

Hi Dave,

Yes, this works. However, there are so many occurences in the document that
it will be very time consuming to use Alt-enter for each instance. I was
hoping there was an easier fix. Thanks. Have a good day.

Frank's response to add some alt-enters (every 80-100 characters) is a common
fix to this.

Didn't it work for you?

I have formatted a cell so the text wrapping is active, however,
only the first 8 or 9 lines will wrap--then the text travels
outside the cell and i am having to manually wrap it, which is very
time consuming. Do i possibly have something set wrong somewhere?
