G Gord Dibben Dec 20, 2004 #2 cneal Width is a column property and is the same top to bottom. Depending upon why you need the differing widths........ You can enter text in say A1 then choose A1:F1 and Format>Cells>Alignment>Horizintal>Center across selection. OR(and I hate to mention this) merge A1:F1 into one cell. Format>Cells>Alignment>Merge Cells or from Formatting Toolbar click the "merge and center" button. Note: only the contents of the left-most cell will be retained. Merged cells cause many problems when it comes to copying, pasting, sorting and other stuff. Gord Dibben Excel MVP

No. The closest you could get would involve using merged cells, but they introduce a lot of problems in calculations and operations like sorting.
