Make the column wider.
Drag it wider by hovering the cursor over the right edge of the column header and click-dragging the 2 headed plus sign to the right or go to FormatColumnAutofit Selection. BTW.............the "boxes" are known as cells.

Hi Guys,
Sorry I did'nt explain myself very well. Due to printing restraints I cannot stretch the cell any further, I need to find a way to combine the ajasent cell to make one big cell to contain the answer.

Maybe this:
Select the cell with the formula and the cell in the next column to the right. Goto the menu FormatCellsAlignmentHorizontalCenter across selectionOK As a *last resort*: Select the cell with the formula and the cell in the next column to the right. Goto the menu FormatCellsAlignmentText ControlMerge cellsOK Merging cells almost always causes unforeseen problems! Use this only as a last resort! -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Scoober" wrote in message ... Hi Guys, Sorry I did'nt explain myself very well.
