The number of characters you can type in a cell and the number of characters you
can see don't have to be the same!

But you can see lots more than the 1000 (or so documented in Excel's help) by
adding alt-enters (to force a new line within the cell) every 80-100 characters.

I have a wookbook with a cell that I want to put 1300 or characters into.
According to the specification a cell should allow 32000 characters. However
the cell is cutting off the last 100 or characters. Any thoughts on why?
