Bob, thanx for the response. I'm not sure how to clarify my question, but here goes: The application is excel 2000. I have several cells which have hard returns (alt-enter) Print preview shows me that I have the first line, but It does not highlight the fact that the second line is being cut off because my row height is not high enough. Further, when I print it on another printer I get the second line overtyped on top of the cell beneath. Since it is another printer, print preview is not showing the effects of a printer that it does not know about. Bottom line: it is very possible for me to not be printing all my data and me not knowing this. And going thru each cell and looking at the formula bar is tedious.
