How do you turn on text wrapping in a cell in a table? If it is not possible, then how do you display all of your text in a field without making your cell 12" wide?
 
You could adjust the height of the table row, making it larger, or you could
press Shift-F2 while your cursor is in the field to show the entire field's
contents in a zoom window.

Tables are not for displaying records, use the datasheet view of a form
instead. I know it's possible to use the table, just poor practice. In any
case, by dragging the row height tall enough, text will automatically wrap
to fit. In a continuous form you can make the form look like a datasheet and
use scroll bars within a textbox.
