Hello, Thanks in advance for your help.
Before I even ask my question, I am far from being a programer and don't really even know enough to be dangerous. I am developing a template for a group of 40 sales reps which will be used to track large accounts. The template requires the use of merged cells which will need to be able to use word wrap. I followed previous advice and use the following code from Jim Rech: ''Simulates row height autofit for a merged cell if the active cell.. '' is merged. '' has Wrap Text set. '' includes only 1 row. ''Unlike real autosizing the macro only increases row height '' (if needed). It does not reduce row height because another '' merged cell on the same row may needed a greater height '' than the active cell. Sub AutoFitMergedCellRowHeight() Dim CurrentRowHeight As Single, MergedCellRgWidth As Single Dim CurrCell As Range Dim ActiveCellWidth As Single, PossNewRowHeight As Single If ActiveCell.MergeCells Then With ActiveCell.MergeArea If .Rows.Count = 1 And .WrapText = True Then Application.ScreenUpdating = False CurrentRowHeight = .RowHeight ActiveCellWidth = ActiveCell.ColumnWidth For Each CurrCell In Selection MergedCellRgWidth = CurrCell.ColumnWidth + MergedCellRgWidth Next .MergeCells = False .Cells(1).ColumnWidth = MergedCellRgWidth .EntireRow.AutoFit PossNewRowHeight = .RowHeight .Cells(1).ColumnWidth = ActiveCellWidth .MergeCells = True .RowHeight = IIf(CurrentRowHeight PossNewRowHeight, _ CurrentRowHeight, PossNewRowHeight) End If End With End If End Sub This works fine, just need it to be automatic. So I added this to the worksheet: Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) AutoFitMergedCellRowHeight End Sub This mostly works. When I enter text in a merged cell which will require wrap then press enter, it does not automatically wrap. But when I go back and click on the cell, it wraps. What do I need to do so I don't have to go back and click on the cell? Thanks, Steve |
