Custom Number Format
I have a custom number format set up that includes text before a number
formatted as percentage. I would like to show the text on 2 lines. Wraping the text does not work. Is there a solution that will show the text in this custom number on 2 lines? Thanks for any suggestions -- Dewayne |

Custom Number Format
Let's say you have setup Custom format:
"value "0% to get the text in the cell. First position the cursor right after value and touch 010 while holding down the ALT key. This will insert a linebreak right in the custom forrmat (not in the cell). The linebreak will look like a small box. Second turn on text wrapping for that cell. The small box should vanish and the line should split into two. -- Gary's Student "Dewayne" wrote: I have a custom number format set up that includes text before a number formatted as percentage.
