    Row Height

    I'm working on this spreadsheet and we are constantly adding more information
    to these cells in a certain column. After a while when there is a lot of text
    added into the cell, it begins to not continue wordwrap-ing it anymore, and
    cuts it off, as well as when choosing AutoFit for cell height, it won't go
    any bigger than 171.00. Is there anyway to change those settings?

    If you add alt-enters to force a new line within the cell, then you'll be able
    to see more text in that cell and the wordwrap should come back.

    Try adding them every 80-100 characters.

    Excel isn't really designed for putting huge amounts of text in one
    cell. Suggest you insert another row below the cell of interest and put
    your additional information there.

    Cell height is given in points and 171 is over 14 inches. A normal size
    printout won't fit on one sheet for this cell.
