Default Cells & Characters

Happy New to all!

I'm having a problem with the number of characters I can put in a cell.

This is what is happenning.

I merge a number of cells together and increase the height to create one
giant cell, where I would like a paragragh to appear.

The idea is someone will click on 1 of 7 command button and depending on
which command button got click the paragraph goes into the giant cell.

Some of these text are large in size and thus does not fit into my giant cell.

I tried a textbox and I get the same problem.

Thus anyone know how to increase the text size?

HELP!!

Thanks to all for your help.

Cheers

Ren

Try adding some alt-enters to the text that goes into the merged cell (pepper
with quite a few).

You'll have to adjust that rowheight either manually or via code (but not
autofit), though.
