I like to save small bits of information, usually messages (answers) from
online forums, into a worksheet I call "misc notes". Trouble is when I do
this, a paragraph of text ends up as one long sentence stretching across
many cells, disappearing off the screen to the right.

I'd like to be able to paste text into a given area, actually into the width
of the screen, and have it wordwrap into the next row when it reaches the
width of the screen. How can I do this? Excel 2002 doesn't even allow the
word "wordwrap" in it's help keyword slot.

To me it sounds like you're using the wrong tool for the job. Sort of
like using a monkey wrench to drive a nail. Excel is a program to
manipulate numerical data, not text. Sounds to me like you're building
more of a knowledge base. I use a program called Genral Knowledgebase:

Not free but useful in multiple situations. I'm sure with a little
looking you could probably find similar for less or even free.
