Text Wrap
 
I have a cells that have been merged..The Text Wrap
doesn't work anymore. Is there a another way to format my
cell so that all of my text shows? (Like in MS
Access.."Can Grow")

Any Ideas?

Trying it myself, if you do Text Wrap and Merge Cells together under Format,
Cells (XL2002) then it works fine. Are you doing something different to this?

Merged cells will allow "wrap text" from FormatCellsAlignment but..........

Excel has a problem auto-fitting merged cells.

You can resize manually or via Macro. Jim Rech has written
code for this.

Note also a recent adaptation of this code by Greg Wilson.

The best cure is DON"T USE MERGED CELLS. They cause no end of problems with
copying, pasting, sorting, filtering.
