Default Reading "hidden" text . . .

The text is always different. It's the contents of a remarks column in
another report. The remarks could be anything, typed in by the person making
the report.

Actually I posted (2 times) a question asking how to have a comments box
contain varying text.

Cell sizes can't be changed. This sheet just barely prints out a page width
in Landscape. But . . .

One cell pulls text fromn another sheet. What I need is for the text to
show when I either huvver cursor over the cell, or when I click on the cell.

Cell width is about 1/2 as wide as I'd need for all text to show. So if the
cell has . . . "This feature complies the spec no . . . . " what I "see" is
. . .

|This feature compli|

The rest of the text is "under" the next column.

My preference would be that the text show up when I place cursor over the
cell.

Comments welcome, and appreciated.
