I am copying a portion of a large spreadsheet, a portion 5 columns wide, and
3 rows tall. Other than the last column, all is well. The last column has a
lot of data in it, between 10-20 lines of text, separated by an
[ALT]+[ENTER]. I find that in pasting, I'll usially get between 13-15 lines,
but it will abruptly cut off, mid-word. Even copying just the cell itself,
and closing other programs produces the same results.

Any suggestions?
 
Try adding alt-enters every 80-100 characters and I bet you'll see more
characters.

I appreciate the suggestion, but each of my lines is short. I've enclosed an
example, (client information replaced with X). What is replaced with M is
what should be there but isn't.

If you haven't tried increasing the rowheight, try that.

If each line in that cell isn't separated with an alt-enter, try that.

I have tried using a very large row height, and alt-enter separates every
line of text. Neither have worked. I am stumped.

I don't know what you mean by "alt-enter separates every line of text.", but I
don't have any other ideas, either.
