it worked when i put it forced line breaks. the character count is
2094 which makes it even more odd that it would not all show up.

Appreciate the feed-back.

Would also appreciate your max character count with this procedure if in
excess of 5,000.

I don't know the exact number of characters that will actually

I've been able to get over 5,000 to show by placing forced line breaks
(
<Alt <Enter) at appropriate places throughout the text.

a cell should hold 32,000 characters if i am not mistaken. i have a
large spreadsheet that has codes, their use, description and the #
of
times they have been 'hit'. most of the information fits in a cell
very easily but i have one description that is huge. i made the
cell
255x409 which is the max and what happened was part of the
information
showed and then the rest of the cell was blank. at that cell size
there was more than enough room for all the data but for some reason
it would not all show. i tried things like changing the alignment
and
it is on wrap text. i tried selecting all the data and making it a
different smaller font. but nothing seems to work. its probably a
simple fix but...too complicated for me obviously. i have the excel
2003 bible but couldn't find my answer in there either. any and all
help is greatly appreciated.- Hide quoted text -
