Automate excel auto adjust row height for large datasets
The most common reason AutoFit fails is a manually set row height or merged cells. Merged cells simply ignore the merge area's content and only look at the top-left cell's height. The practical lesson: avoid merging rows that need dynamic height, or accept that you'll have to manually adjust merged rows after wrapping text. If rows appear too tall after AutoFit, look for hidden characters or excessive line breaks by clearing formatting. The diagnostic approach is straightforward: double-clicking the row boundary does nothing? Suspect a manual override. Rows shrink but content is still cut off? Suspect no wrap text.
