I am trying to enter data into excel for church memorials, but the data is too large for the small cells. Does anyone know how to expand the cells so that more information can be added? I asked Bill and he said to go ahead and expand the cells if I know how, but I don't. Thanks, Rebecca

Hi Rebecca: AT the top of the sheet, on the taskbar, under FORMAT, you can choose "word wrap" and the cells will enlarge to accommodate the information. Otherwise if you put your cursor on the line at the top of the page that separates the columns you want to enlarge. A cross will appear on that line, hold down the left button on your mouse and drag the separator to the width you want the column to be. Jeanne Jeanne M.

Hi Rebecca,  We corresponded back in March when I inquired about the records of the First Baptist Church of Troy.  You said they were closing and the Historical Society was negotiating for the records.  Were the records saved?  I also wanted to respond to your query about Excell.  To enlarge the cells you click on, hold and move the little lines at the top of the page that divide the cell. --- On Mon, 10/20/08, Rebecca Rector <rrector1@nycap.rr.com> wrote: From: Rebecca Rector <rrector1@nycap.rr.com> Subject: [NY-TROY-IRISH-GENSOC] church memorial project & excel To: ny-troy-irish-gensoc@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, October 20, 2008, 1:49 PM I am trying to enter data into excel for church memorials, but the data is too large for the small cells.
