large text amount in cell will not display in the cell
With a large amount of text in a cell, word wrap enabled, row autofit
enabled, column width 81.71, only 12 lines of text will display. The total text will display in the formula bar. I can manually increase the row height, but the additional text will not display. How do I increase the amount of text displayed in an individual cell? Thanks. -- dbelch01 |
Add some manual (forced) line breaks - <Alt <Enter - at some appropriate
places. This will increase the amount of displayed text. -- HTH, RD ============================================== Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ============================================== "dbelch01" wrote in message ...

XL's specifications are that cells can contain 32767 characters, of
which 1024 will be displayed or printed. You can enter a manual linefeed (Alt-Enter) at least every 1024 characters to bypass the display limit.

Add alt-enters (to force a new line within the cell) every 80-100 characters.
