Determine Point Size of Text - Take 2
 

Sorry, I always press the wrong button there.


Question is

if a user enters text into a cell, is there a way to determine just how long
that text is in point size. IE the range("a1").width = 21,
range("A1").value.width = 22
I know excel manages it somehow so it can do autowidth of rows and columns,
is their a way to determine that programmaticaly so I can divide the text
into more cells without changing the size of the cells or autofitting the text

place text into an unused column, autosize then take the size of that column.
