Default In Excel, how can I show very long text in a single cell?

Noreen

Try while holding "alt" and touching "Enter". This will place a hard return
in the cell and should allow you to see more of your text in the cell. You
will probibly want to enter a couple hundred characters then "alt" "enter".
You can use several of these if necessary. Play with it until you get it the
way you like it.

I'm using WRAP TEXT but the data in the cell is truncated. I can see the
entire entry in the formula window, but not in the cell.
