Default edit box formatting

Hi
Is it possible to actually see the text formatted in the edit box as opposed
to the cell? eg if I put a few words in a sentence in bold or colour
I know this will show up on the worksheet cell but I store long paragraphs
in cells and find it best to read them in the edit box (once I've dragged it
to size)
R

Nope, but you can edit directly in the Cell. (setting is in Excel
Options, Advanced, Editing Options)
