Cell Wrapping
When text gets to the end of a cell, how can I have it automatically continue
in the next cell below without hitting "enter" at the end of the cell?

Perhaps it quits wrapping because you have reached the cell limit for
characters.
Excel Help on "limits" or "specifications" reveals that Excel will allow
32,767 characters to be entered in a cell.
However, it goes on to state that "only 1024 characters will be visible or can
be printed"
To work around this limitation, stick a few ALT + ENTERs in at appropriate
spots, about every 100 characters..
The ALT + ENTER forces a line-feed and expands the 1024 limit.
How far is not really known. Just experiment.

I put this formula in A1:
="xxx"& REPT(REPT("asdf ",25)&CHAR(10),58)&"yyy"
And adjusted the columnwidth, rowheight and font size and I got about 7300
characters to print ok.

Failing that, use a Text Box to store the text or MS Word which is a word
processing application, unlike Excel which is not.
