How do I change the width of an individual cell?
 
I am trying to adjust the width of an individual cell and all I am able to do
is adjust the width of the entire column. Any suggestions?

Thank you

Ola Sigurdh

That is all you can do.

You can select two or more cells and merge them (FormatCells, Alignment
tab)
However, this can cause some problems when sorting, or copying and
pasting, so you may want to avoid merging.

You could also put a border around a group of cells, so it looks like
one large cell when printed.

That's the way it works. A cell is defined as being the intersection of a
row and a column and it's dimensions are set by them
