For example, when typing the text into cell C3 exceeds the width of the column so the text is obscured and not displayed:

1. For a cell that is an original cell (do not merge other column or row cells into 1), it is very simple:

- Select the cell you want to automatically drop text when the width of the column ends -> go to Home tab -> Alignment -> select Wrap Text feature :

- After selecting the option Wrap Text -> text content in the cell automatically down the line when the width of the column:

2. With data cells assembled from multiple cells

- The case with Excel cells is aggregated from many other cells if using Text Wrap feature to wrap text content when the column width is empty but the height of the cell does not change so the text is still covered. For example, when merging cell B4 and cell C4 into one cell after entering the content, selecting the Wrap Text feature does not automatically go down the line when the width of the column is over:

 Private Sub Worksheet_Change (ByVal Target As Range) Dim NewRwHt As Single Dim cWdth As Single, MrgeWdth As Single Dim c As Range, cc As Range Dim ma As Range With Target If .MergeCells And .WrapText Then Set c = Target.Cells (1 , 1) cWdth = c.ColumnWidth Set ma = c.MergeArea For Each cc In ma.Cells MrgeWdth = MrgeWdth + cc.ColumnWidth Next Application.ScreenUpdating = False ma.MergeCells = False c.ColumnWidth = MrgeWdth c.EntireRow.AutoFit NewRwHt = c.RowHeight c.ColumnWidth = cWdth ma.MergeCells = True ma.RowHeight = NewRwHt cWdth = 0: MrgeWdth = 0 Application.ScreenUpdating = True End If End With End Sub 

+ After typing the above code to save and exit VBA, return to the Excel file to re-enter the content for the cell just created the text content automatically down the line when the width of the column and the height of the cell is changed., unbleached text content:
