Default Is there maximum number of characters per cell?

Hi,

I was trying to enter some lines of text into an Excel cell and
although I could enter it, from a certain point on the cell content is
only displayed as ############################### as soon as I exit the
cell. The cell is formatted as text, and the line break option has been
set.

Is there a maximum number of characters per cell in Excel or why do I
get this? Is there any way I can change this?

Peter
