I have been copying information from e-mails and pasting into cells within
excel. Although I have text wrap on, the text does not wrap. I paste a great deal of information into cells. The only way I can get text to wrap is to use Alt & enter which creates a hard return. Is there another workaound so I don't have to continue doing this? -- Thank you for your help MO Albany, NY |

Have you tried formatting the cells to allow text wrapping _after_ the
paste from email? When you copy and paste from another application you may be inadvertently bringing in formatting from that other application that conflicts with or overrides existing formats in Excel. For instance if you copy a section of text off a web page and paste it into Excel you'll get a ton of unexpected formatting. Formatting after the paste may resolve your problem. |

Try choosing Special Paste - unicode text or paste directly to the fx bar.
