Please note that I have read other blogs and issues related to the "wrap text" feature in excel. I was not able to find reference to what I am experiencing anywhere online. Here are the facts.

How do you force a "return" in a wrapped text cell? Example, if my text says "AB Sales Department" and I format to wrap text. Most likely Excel will put "AB Sales" on the 1st line and "Department" on the 2nd line. But what if I want "AB" to be on the 1st line and "Sales Department" to be on the 2nd line, how do I force a "return" after AB?
Usually I want the cells set to wrap text, but this is not the default setting so I spend a lot of time formatting cells. Even if I select the whole worksheet or individual columns and change it to wrap, when I return later I have to change it again. Same with formatting a date, I always want it 6/1/11 format and have to change it everytime.
If you paste a long text (without formatting) and the destination cell is WITHOUT wrap text selected, upon pasting, Excel automatically enables wrap text, regardless of whether you want it or not.

I started with a new Excel 2011 spreadsheet and checked "wrap text" under format alignment. The row height expanded but the text that should have wrapped in the cell did not show up.

I am editing a shared excel file from MS TEAMS/ teams/file, but failed to wrap text, and full contents cannot be shown in a column. If in Microsoft Excel 2013, wrap text option is in alignment field, but I can't find wrap text option in alignment frm teams.
In excel 365, if you select a column and turn on wrap text, it will work properly for any data you enter manually (type into the cells). However if you have formulas in this column that references data in another worksheet/datasource (like a vlookup) then the wrap text does NOT work if that reference data is updated.
