Need help adjusting column width

[JPhorselvr]

Hi I need help adjusting the width of a column, but only part of the column not the entire thing... what's the easiet way to do this?

Welcome to the Board!

Not really sure what you mean by only adjusting part of the column?

Thanks!

Sorry, let me try and clarify. For rows 1-20 I want columns A-D a certain width. But for rows 21-25 I need column D to be wider. How can I adjust column D for rows 21-25 only?

When I click on the column header D up top and adjust the width, it adjusts the entire column, not just the particular cells.

Hope this is not to confusing... I'm so frustrated!

I don't think you can do what you want

it would be like asking, "how can I make row 2 a certain height for for a specific column, and row 2 a different height for another column ? "

maybe you could format the cells d21:d25 and make them word wrap

Ok I see what you're saying thanks... how do you word wrap?

Click on the cell, press Control and 1 or right click on the cell and go to format cell, then on the 2nd tab, there is a check box for word wrap.

Hope that helps.
