Text Cuts Off
 

When typing text in the cell, no matter whether I have "WRAP TEXT" on or not,
the text is cut off. I read an earlier posting response saying there is a
limit of 1024 characters and to use "ALT-ENTER" to get around this. It does
not work. Is there anything else I can do?

Thank you.

Try using a text box from the Drawing toolbar. You can align the box with
the cell by holding down the Alt key while you move the borders.

Maybe just increasing the row height will fix the problem.

Once you manually change the row height then Excel expects
you to continue to adjust it to what you want. I expect that is
the cause of the problem. There is a macro by Jim Rech to
to autofit due to merged cells that may actually be your problem
and solution see
