Excel 2007 Is it possible to vary the column width between rows? Can column
C be made to be 12 characters wide in rows 10-20 and 18 wide in rows 21-25?

I am trying to create a form with a block 12 columns wide and 10 rows at the
top. Under that are two blocks of information that require widely different
column widths, but mus fit in the same 8.5 x 11 sheet size. No calculations
are performed in the two bottom blocks of data. They are merely data entry
blocks.

No, it can not be done.

You can however merge the cells in row 21-25 with the next column and adjust
the width...

Hi,

can't be done in any version of Excel. Nor can row heights vary along a
single row.

If you want those kind of features you can work with a Word table.

You can use Merged Cells to achieve a similar effect.

For example. set the column widths to 6 characters, then to get cells 12
characters wide you can merge 2 adjacent cells, and to get cells 18
characters wide you can merge 3 adjacent cells.
