If it is not a column width problem may be........

There seems to be a problem with text length between 256-1024 (0-255 and 1025+
work ok).

The bad news is that this is the way Excel works.

Re-formatting the cell(s) to General usually fixes the problem of the
#######'s

Hi,
Sometimes I can fit a lot of text in a small font into a cell. Other
times when I try to fit the same amount of text into another cell, all I end
up with on the screen are # signs. Thanks for the help!!
