Increasing # of Characters to display from a cell

[Guest]

I know that a cell can hold 32,767 characters but only can display 1,024 in a
cell. Is there a way to increase the # of characters to display?

Add alt-enters (to force new lines within the cell) every 80-100 characters.

If you use quite a bit of alt + enter it will increase

I was trying to avoid doing Alt-Enter because you would need to put a hard
break for every line and you have to find the place where it will break
nicely to diplay in the cell...

I don't have any other suggestion.

I am trying to avoid that... At work, we have an application that is filled
in by users. There is a section of our application that calls for writing a
small Narrative. Basically it is a long paragraph. Because there are so many
users, I wanted to fix the application rather than providing the users
instructions on how to use Alt enter. In addition, it is time consuming to
eyeball every 80-100 characters to make it print nice.
