I am running excel 2003.
If I set a row to auto fit. and I set the cells to wrap text.
If I start typing text, it will wrap in the cells. growing the row height
as needed.
Now,
If I merge some cells. It will no longer grow the height to wrap text.
how come?
is there a way to merge cells and have the text wrap?
thanks
Merged cells won't autofit -- even if you try to manually autofit the row.
Jim Rech wrote a macro called AutoFitMergedCellRowHeight that you may like:

If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at:
