How do I recover text that was truncated/ deleted in Excel?
Does anyone know how to recover text that was truncated/ deleted in Excel?
Is there a way to do this? All cells that had text over 255 characters (with spaces) were truncated and the text appears to have been deleted. I think this may have occurred when Excel asked what version of Excel I wanted to save the workbook under. |

How do I recover text that was truncated/ deleted in Excel?
If you saved the workbook in a pre-xl97 format, then you'll have to go back to
one of your backups -- the data is lost. xl97 extended the number of characters per cell to 32k (about) from 255. CNK wrote: Does anyone know how to recover text that was truncated/ deleted in Excel?
