I have workbook that contains column for text/comments. I am unable to see all of the text in the cell no matter how I size it. All the text is displayed in the formula bar when the cell is selected, however not all of the text is displayed in the cell itself

I have Excel 97 and I believe there is a 256 character limit. Is there a way to get around this limit, or can I do something to enable all text to be seen

Thanks

I am having the same problem on a form that I use every month. At the top there are 4 words that show up in the formula box, but don't show up in the cell or when I print it out and then there is another line lower that has several words missing at the end of the sentence. If I make the cells wider, it changes the whole report. Did you get an answer to your question?
