MS Excel 2000 Cell Capacity and Data Display

I'm working with a large Excel 2000 spreadsheet in which most of the cell
entries are text. Some text cell entries exceed 300 words. I'm using the
wrap text and row/column autosizing features. All of the text displays
correctly when I'm in the cell or in the formula box. When I move to
anyother cell, however, the text in the cells is cropped. How do I get all
of the text to display and print properly?

Thanks.

If you add alt-enters every 80-100 characters, you can see lots of characters.
You may have to manually adjust the rowheight, though.

Dave, Thanks for your response. I've tried your suggestion but to not avail.
Please call me at (520) 538-3570 to discuss the situation and try some other
solutions.

Thanks.
