Best Answer

Individual cell sizes cannot be changed. You have to change the width of all cells in a column or the height of all cells in a row. You can do this by putting the cursor between the headers on the rows or columns and then dragging. You can also set specific values through the Row Height and Column Width options which you can find as part of the formatting options.

An individual cell cannot be widened, a whole column has to be. To do that, you can drag out the column width at the headers. You can double click on the division between the column headers to get a best fit. You can type a size in in the column width setting.

In Microsoft Excel sometimes I type a lot and it replaces my text with a bunch of number signs how do I get rid of that?

If the contents of a cell are too big to display within that cell Excel will use empty cells to the right to display it in full. However, if adjacent cells aren't empty Excel will display ##### to indicate that the column is not wide enough to display the contents. Make the column wider by dragging the right hand border of the column header to the right. If you double click instead of dragging the column will re-size itself to accommodate the longest entry.
