When writing text into a cell, how can I decrease the size of the text so that it does not alter the size of my cell?

RE: Text

Hello Elise,

Typing text in an excel cell will not alter the size of the cell unless you have the Word Wrap turned on for that cell. So, you need to turn off Word Wrap for the cells (Format menu, Cells, from dialog choose the Format tab).

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Mark

Excel tip:

Highlighting a data range

Attempting to use a mouse to highlight a large range of cells with data in Excel can make the mouse to have a life of it's own!

Use keyboard strokes instead.

Step 1. Place the cusor in the cell where the highlighting should begin.

Step 2. Select keystroke, CTRL+SHIFT+END

This will take the cursor to the furthermost bottom corner of the data range found in that worksheet. And highlight that range of cells at the same time
