Creating Text Fields in Excel 2002

I would like to creat multiple text fields --- much like a memo field ---
across several columns and rows.....say from A50 to S80 so that
I can write free form notes for review when I print the spread sheet
in hard copy form.

I have formatted all fields from A50 to S80 as text fields, however,
when I type in information it is all visible only in A50.

Is there a way to make a memo field that will cover a wide area which
would allow for free forms notes much like the information I am typing
here in this message?

Thanks.

Please disregard my previous post.

I just learned how to create a text box. I used the drawing tool bar and selected the text box icon and created the box from A50 to S80 and it
allows me to type the text just as I would in an email message which was
exactly the solution I was looking for.

Thanks .... hope this helps someone else.
