G Gord Dibben Nov 3, 2004 #3 Ned The maximum is 32,767 characters to a cell. However, as Frank points out, only 1024 will show or can be printed. Increase the 1024 by using ALT + ENTER at appropriate spots. Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Wed, 3 Nov 2004 00:49:04 -0800, "NED 1451" <NED

G Gord Dibben Feb 17, 2005 #4 Chaim I have never used 2000 so can't speak for that. 97 shows a portion of the characters. As you decrease the number of chars, the shown portion decreases in some sort of ratio. As far as being able to enter 32,767 chars and see only 1024, your guess is as good as mine.

D Dave Peterson Feb 20, 2005 #6 I don't have a guess what could be happening? If you put =REPT("asdf ",250) in A1 and then Edit|copy, Edit|paste special|Values Can you add more text to that cell?
