Can't 'see' all of a cell's contents across columns
I don't know where to look to fix the following.
All cells in columns A thru E are 'format, cells, text' The cells in col A contain either: a) 1 character of text (a code in the application) b) a 'long' text string (usually 10-35 characters or so) a general macro processes them differently. When a cell in Col A contains the long string I want to be able to see all of it on the spreadsheet, and the rules are that columns b,c,d,e will be null. Dim Cola as string sets up a variable in the macro. The problem is that all of the long text does not visually 'spread' across columns b,c,d, etc. I 'cleared contents' of cols b,c,d,e; no help. when I 'detach' the macro call from the worksheet_selectionchange event, the long text spreads just fine. What do I do next? Neal Z |

Does it work for you to select the col (A) then formatcolumnAutoFit

Unfortunately, I'm afraid not. It would make it too tough for the user to
look at the rest of the sheet. Thanks for the reply.
