Default Enlarging Excel field

I'm importing the message body field from email in MS Outlook 2003 into
Excel. This email is the "MAILER-DAEMON" messaage that I receive when an
email bounces.
The problem is that the bounced email address is at the end of the message
in the body, and that part is not imported into Excel.
QUESTION: is there a way to increase the size of the data that can be
inported into a cell in Excel?
My idea is to match the bad email addresses with the email addresses in
Outlook's Contact forms - then remove the bad email addresses from the
Contact forms.
Thanks, Mark Flynn

Default Enlarging Excel field

hi,
in excel help, type the word "specifications". this displays excel specs and
limits.
per my specs, excel will only display 1024 characters in a cell but will
display 32767 characters in the formula bar and you cannot increase the size
of a cell beyond the stated excel limits.
