Formatting Imported Text
I have downloaded information that needs to be formatted so it can fit on one
page. Is there a way to get lengthy text to wrap within a cell and have the cell height automatically adjust? I know I can alt-enter to get a hard return within a cell, but I have multiple documents to be downloaded and formatted so if there's a quick and easy was to format all at once I'd like to know. |

Formatting Imported Text
Import the information, then select the entire sheet by left clicking on the
gray box at the top left side of the sheet just above the row numbers. Once the sheet is selected select Format... Cells... Click the "Alignment" tab, check "Wrap Text", click OK. Then while the complete sheet is still selected, select Format... Row... Autofit. If you want to print on a single page width, Select File... Page Setup... In the scaling section, click the Radio Button next to "Fit to:" then delet the "1" in the tall field. Click OK. You sheet is not formatted to print on 1 page wide by as many as it needs tall.
