How to Wrap Text in Microsoft Excel 2003
By default, Microsoft Excel 2003 displays long text on a single line, even if the text exceeds the width of its cell. If no content is in the adjacent cells, the text will continue on top of them. If there is content in the adjacent cells, the lengthy text is truncated and only partially visible. Excel 2003's Wrap Text option addresses this issue by automatically increasing the cell height and allowing the text to occupy multiply lines in the same cell.
-
1.
Right-click the Excel 2003 cell containing the text and select "Format Cells."
-
2.
Click the "Alignment" tab in the Format Cells window.
-
3.
Click the box next to "Wrap Text" to place a check-mark in it.
-
4.
Click "OK" to apply the Wrap Text option.
