Setting Row Height via Excel VBA with merged cells and word wrap












3















What is the Excel VBA code that will set the correct (all characters visible and not excess space) row height with merged cells and word wrap on. My font is Calibri 11.



Is there some simple relationship between font size, column size and row height with word wrap on?

Moved answer from OP's question:



OrigRowHeight = SafeRange.RowHeight
OrigColWidth = SafeRange.ColumnWidth

CurRow = ActiveCell.Row
CurCol = ActiveCell.Column
NumMergeCols = ActiveCell.MergeArea.Count
LastCol = CurCol + NumMergeCols - 1

For i = CurCol To LastCol
CombinedColWidth = CombinedColWidth + Cells(CurRow, i).ColumnWidth
Next i

' Most of the following code came from Superuser user6261023 (My Thanks)
With SafeSheet.Range(SafeRange.Address)
TargetRange.Copy
.PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
.UnMerge
.ColumnWidth = CombinedColWidth
.Value = TargetRange.Value
.EntireRow.AutoFit
NeededRowHeight = 1.05 * .RowHeight / TargetRange.MergeArea.Rows.Count
.ClearContents
.ClearFormats
.RowHeight = OrigRowHeight
.ColumnWidth = OrigColWidth
End With

'Return NeededRowHeight
NewRowHeight = NeededRowHeight
