cell contents ##### help
I have a somewhat long description that I need to go into a spreadsheet
(approx 5 sent. long). The contents come up as #### when I enter it. I have tried adjusting the cell row/height/wrapping text. Is there another way to get the cell to show the content? Please help. |

Check formatting.. format - cells - depending on what you're entering.. Text
is better than General for text... "adam" wrote: I have a somewhat long description that I need to go into a spreadsheet (approx 5 sent. long). The contents come up as #### when I enter it.
