Wrap text is tempermental within a single cell
 

When I copy and paste into a merged cell (required by client to stay with
their format on an RFI), the text may wrap in some areas and not in others
within the same cell. I have tried a number of suggestions that I've seen,
including: pasting into the cell above the spreadsheet, adding additional
lines with Alt+Enter prior to pasting, "Paste Special', trying both formats
of general and text, confirming the text in word is all the same format prior
to pasting,

Any additional suggestions?

Hi,

So there are no Hard carriage returns in Word, nor simple carrage returns,
the text just flows?


I can't duplicate the problem. If I select a sentence in Word and copy it,
move to a merged cell in Excel which has Word Wrap on, and click the formula
bar and paste everything comes in just fine.

If I select multiple paragraphs in Word and do the same thing it comes in as
multiple paragraphs in the merged cell.

These are multiple paragraphs. However, in different individual paragraphs,
some text wraps and some just keeps going on in a single line.
