Create a form in Excel
I've set up a template in Excel that I send out to customers to fill in. It
looks nice but the people who fill it in don't necessarily know how to use Excel! I have no VB experience and want the form to be protected so that they can only fill in certain boxes. I have got tick boxes on the form that need to be 'live' and there are some large areas where text needs to be input - this typically needs to be a box which will automatically wrap onto the next line and if possible allow the user to press return to start a new line. I think there is a limit on number of chars in Excel and need to overcome if poss. Can I do this without using VB - any tips or advice would be gratefully received. Excel 2003 by the way.... Thanks Anita |

On text wrapping
Select the cell in which you need to have multi-line text. Right click--Format cells--Alignment-- Check Wrap Text..
