AFIK it's not there in Excel. Excel is just simply not a word processing
system. You'll find other "lack's Word ability to..." areas such as when
dealing with headers, footers and page numbering. Just a different beast.

In MSWord, the Format Font operation includes a tab to control
Character Spacing. I don't see that feature in Excel. Is that
feature truly missing from Excel (2003), or am I just overlooking it?

I would like to be able to expand text spacing by a chosen number of
points.
