Expanding Capabilities of Wrap Text in a cell
How can wrap text be used on a large amount of text in a cell? I can expand
the cell box for additional text with Alt+Enter, but wrap text seems to work only up to a limited amount of characters within a cell and then it stops. |

Expanding Capabilities of Wrap Text in a cell
Hi,
I think the problem is not the wrap text only works up to a certain number of characters, Excel only displays a certain number of characters in a cell, and you have found the way to beat that limit - Alt+Enter. In Excel 2003: Only 1,024 display in a cell; all 32,767 display in the formula bar In 2007 you can see and display 32768 characters in a cell If this is helpful, please click the Yes button Cheers, Shane Devenshire "EvergreenHawk" wrote: How can wrap text be used on a large amount of text in a cell?
