What controls row expansion to show muli-line text in a word-wrap
I seem to have difficulty when entering text into a cell and the row size not
expanding to show all of the data. I'm not talking about being beyond the character limits of a cell. I use word wrap for the cell but the row height doesn't enlarge to show all text entered. I've even tried Format, Row, AutoFit unsuccessfully. I have to go over to the far left and manually drag the row down to make it larger. Surely there's a way to have this occur automatically? Thank you. |

What controls row expansion to show muli-line text in a word-wrap
Are you using "merged" cells?
These will wrap text but will not autofit. You would have to use event code behind the worksheet to achieve autofitting.
