###### appearing even though the cell is large enough to display everything

I have a cell with text in it and on my screen it appears as a series
of pound signs. I have made the cell large enough that all the text
should fit so I do not know why the pound signs will not disappear.

Format the cell to General.

Excel has a problem with cells that contain >255 but <1024 characters.
