Default how do I type long paragraph into a cell?

Try throwing in an Alt+Enter (which gives a new line) from time to time.

[And I assume you mean a worksheet, not a chart?]

I am doing a chart with 3 columns -Date, Apt. No. and Complaint. The
complaint column is about 5 inches wide but I need to be able to add more
rows in the cell. After typing approximately 15+ lines it will not take
any
more data. If I add the additional data to the edit line at the top it
will
not appear in the chart and it will not print. I tried starting on the
following line in a new cell but then when I try sorting the information,
it
does not stay in order.
