Default Row Height beyond 260

I have not heard of a bug in this area.

My Excel 2003 allows 409 pts, which is maximum according to Specifications
in help.

Sometimes I cannot see all the text due to being over the 1024 character
limit(although the Alt + Enters can increas that limit)

But you are saying that you cannot FormatRowHeight and get more than 260
pts to hold?

Is there a bug in Microsoft Excel 2003 (11.8302.8221) that prevents a row
from going beyond 260??? I can manually change the row height but when I have
like bolded, underlined text, I don't think the formatting has anything to do
with it, the cell doesn't grow any more and even if I manually change the row
height, it is creating space at the top of the cell rather than the bottom of
the cell. So some of my underlined, bolded text at the bottom is not readable.

Boy I hope i am being clear. This bugs me and I am wondering if it is indeed
a bug. My cell is set-up to wrap text, but it does have some hard coded
<Alt<Enter breaks in there as well.

I appreciate anyone's review and response and Thanks in advance.
