formatting specific cell
I have a large document , large in width, and large in height. All of my
cells are formatted for 'wrapped text', but one particular column, column H will not format like all of the others. My question, which is probably silly, is: Is there a limit as to how much text you can create in just one single cell? Do I have too much text in this one specific cell that it will not format correctly. It's odd that ALL of my other cells will format, but this one particular cell will NOT!! |

formatting specific cell
Hi,
the answer is version dependent: 2003: Cells can contain 1024 characters in a formula Cells can contain 32,767 text characters but only the first 1023 will be visible (unless you use Alt Enter to force line breaks) 2007: Cells can contain 8192 characters in formulas Cells can contain 32,767 text characters in cells and all can be seen and printed without needing to use Alt Enter.

And, almost everything is in the help system under the topic specifications
(but not quite everything). Cheers, Shane "KristyLynn30" wrote: I have a large document , large in width, and large in height.
