Default Hyphenate

You do realize that Excel was originally created to be a number cruncher and
basically remains that type of application.

Word is a good word-processing tool for dealing with large ampunts of text and
generating website tables.

But..........lotsa luck with your wishes<g

I suggest you somehow incorporate the hyphenate function into Excel. I am
frequently using Excel to organize data that requires larger blocks of text
and I am ALWAYS having trouble with words getting cut off in wierd ways, 95%
of which could be solved with a hyphenation tool. Also, a cell padding
feature would be great (being able to create space around the text in a cell)
or spaces between the cells. I'm getting used to using web based table
generators, and want to see those same functions in Excel.
