Default How do I adjust Excel cell margins in Office 2007?

Sorry, I misread the question.

Interior cell margins can be set using the Indent feature.

In Excel 2003 it would be found at FormatCellsAlignmentIndent

I don't know much about finding these features in 2007..........not installed
yet.

Thanks for your post Gord. That makes sense. But then how do I get each row
of cells to have more "padding" between the text inside the cell and the edge
of the cell? The reason I wanted to adjust the margins inside the cells is
because my text is hard to read. I wanted to add more room at the end of each
row of cells, without having to do it by manually adjusting the row height.
Even using the AutoFit Row Height Feature, when I go to print my document,
inevitably some of the text does not print (although it shows up on my screen
as if it's going to print just fine). I have to go through my document, row
by row, and manually increase my row height to give extra padding so that
when I print, all my text prints.

Any ideas?
Thanks again!
