am an art teacher. have created a 'lesson plan' format for a weeks worth of lessons. When trying to write within each individual cell, cannot get the text to start at the top of the cell. I have gone to Format, Alignment, selected Wrap text..but it begins at the bottom of the cell???
 
Use Format | Cells... | Alignment tab and select Top or Center from the
Vertical Alignment drop down box.

Regards

Trevor

You also need to set Format>Cells>Alignment>Vertical to Top.

In the "alignment" panel - Change the "Vertical" alignment to "Top".
