Hi,
Please can someone help me in regards to a merged cell difficulty. When I
type a couple of lines of text into a merged cell, I find that a couple of
things do not happen. First of all I notice that if I do not have wrap text
on, the text does not extend into the next cell. Secondly, when I do have
wrap text on, and type in several lines of text, the row height does not
automatically grow to accomodate the lines of text. I am left to do this
manually which is not as satisfactory.

Can anyone comment on these differences between normal and merged cells.
Regards,
David Thomas.

Thanks, that works well.
Do you happen to know why excel works that way? It doesn't appear to be
consistent with the way normal cells operate.
 
Merged cells are like normal cells <bg>.

I have no insight. If I were guessing, I'd say it was bug. I don't think any
one would design it that way.
