Default How to paste and wordwrap a paragraph of text into Excel 2002

I like to save small bits of information, usually messages (answers) from
online forums, into a worksheet I call "misc notes". Trouble is when I do
this, a paragraph of text ends up as one long sentence stretching across
many cells, disappearing off the screen to the right.

I'd like to be able to paste text into a given area, actually into the width
of the screen, and have it wordwrap into the next row when it reaches the
width of the screen. How can I do this? Excel 2002 doesn't even allow the
word "wordwrap" in it's help keyword slot.


John
