Whereas:
- Excel can (wonderfully) auto-resize a cell whose contents are wider than its width. - But auto-resize doesn't work on a cell that is merged with another. - At the risk of being obvious, a feature is a feature only if it works. And Excel's auto-resize doesn't work. That is, unless Microflot has fixed this bug since my version? *** |

Same situation in Excel 2007, but in both versions there's a workaround. If
the merged cells are A1:D1, for example, use a remote cell, say Z1, which is as WIDE as columns A:D, and contains =A1. Both are marked as wrap text. When you double-click the row separator between rows 1 & 2, it actually uses Z1 to determine the height, and it looks like A1:D1 works! wrote in message ...
