When I wrap text, excel hides the text display

[Guest]

I am unable to view the text that is wrapped. When I move my cursor over the
cell then I see the value in the formula bar. This behaviour is since the
last few days.

Youneed to adjust the row height. I usually do the following
1) Highlight entire row or cell which ever you like
2) go to Fomat - Row -Autofit.

I never figure out why sometimes excel will adjust the row height and other
times it won't

Thanks for response. I had tried and failed with this action before
w.o. success. Microsoft Online Help did recommend this as well.

I am still stuck with the same problem. Strangely the same file in
another person's computer was okay! Looks to be a problem with my
local box!

Will be doing some more R&D and will post back to this thread.

As a last resort I manually adjust the row height by taking the line between
rows 11 and 12 (or the row I want to change) and pulling it down to make the
box larger. This ALWAYS works.

Do you use multiple monitors?
