8.8 Wrapping Text Within Cell Boundary

   

NExS allows you to wrap text in a cell which would normally overflow into the adjacent cell or be truncated if the adjacent cell is not empty. The default for the whole sheet is changed in the Cell Defaults dialog box from the Options menu. However, you can set the wrap option for an individual cell or range of cells by using the Wrap option from the Format menu.

To change the default Wrap specification:

  1. Select Cell Defaults from the Options menu. NExS displays the Cell Defaults dialog box as shown in Figure 8.1.

  2. Click the Wrap option button and select On to enable text wrapping or select Off to disable text wrapping for all cells in the entire sheet.

  3. Apply your selection by clicking OK or Apply.

To change the Wrap setting for individual cells:

  1. Select a cell or range of cells to be affected.

  2. Select Wrap from the Format menu to display a cascading menu of choices. Choose an On/Off setting or choose default to use the default setting from Cell Defaults.
