Don't use merged cells, it is never a good idea using it, usually it means
(as you have discovered) problems
No need either really from a layout point of view

However you would need VBA for that

There is a cell in a row. The cell is merged with Columns C, D, E. When I
apply Autofit to the whole row, some of the content in the merged cell is
hidden.

For example, the content is "A person printed 5 copies of menu and give it
to the human resource department." When I apply Autofit, I can only see
"A person printed 5 copies of menu" and the rest can not be seen. But when
I select the cell, the whole content is displayed in the content area
under menu buttons.

I am dealing with large documents and I cannot apply Autofit row by row.
And I copy the data from IE browser and paste it to Excel.

Can anyone tell me the workaround? Thanks.
