Default Word wrap with 255 characters

Cells containing text with < 255 characters, wraps correctly. However, with
255 characters, a single line containing "######..." is displayed in the
cell. I'm using Office 2007 and have created big cells in order to contain
big notes.

Try formatting the cell as General (not text).
