Default Custom format (time) and wrapping text in a cell

Hello,

I've got a time lapse formula going where I have start date/time in
column A, end date/time in column B, and elapsed time in column C. I
also have column C set with a custom formatting of
[d "days" h "hours"], which gives me exactly what I want. For
example,

Start date/time = 12/2/2006 8:00:00 AM
End date/time = 12/04/06 10:05 PM
Elapsed time = 2 days 14 hours

As I said, this works just fine. What I would like, though, is a more
narrow column and for the text to wrap, like below

2 days
14 hours

However, it will not wrap text (I get the ######) . I've tried
setting the column width an row height to autofit, and it still will
not wrap. Any ideas? Thanks.

Frank
