Do cells width change to hold a large formula on a spreadsheet?
No. The result of typing of a formula in is to give you some answer, so that is what it will display after it is typed in. It will store the formula in full, but doesn't display it. Even if the answer itself is wider than the cell, the spreadsheet won't automatically change the width. You need to do that yourself. The only exception is when you set the spreadsheet to show the formulas and not the results. You can do that by going to the Tools menu, then Options and in the View section, tick beside Formulas. You can also do it by pressing and holding the Ctrl key and the `key, which is the key beside the 1 key on the main keyboard.
