How do I change column width on Excel?

Answer 1

Click the right border of the column you want (you'll see the mouse cursor change to a line with two arrows on both sides) and drag to the size you want, or right click on the column and select column width. A box will pop up with a numerical representation of the column size. Try using different numbers to get the size you like.

Answer 2

IGnore that one, I tried it and it did nothing. What is easiest (and the only thing I ve found, I m doing those projects too!), is to go to the top of the column and drag the right edge of the column to the desired width. It will show a little box telling you the inches and pixel-width of the column, and if you select multiple columns, it will do all at once. Let me know if that doesn t make sense!

Answer 3

Simply, right click on the line of the column you want to widen. A double sided arrow will show up. Keep pressing and drag the line to the desired width.

Answer 4

Right click at top of column, then click on "Column Width". Another way is to go to top of column near edge. Notice that cursor changes to crosshairs and with left click of mouse you can change the width.

Answer 5

Click on the top of the column to select the column you want to resize then go to format on the toolbar and click on column / column width and input the size you want and the column will resize.

Answer 6

click right on the line between the column you want to widen, wait for the double sided arrow to show up, then drag to desired width.

Answer 7

Select the format menu on your toolbar and scroll down to COLUMN>WIDTH...

Answer 10

Hi there.

Easy, do you see a very tiny light-grey line between the cells? (ones with A, and B and C and so on in them)

Move your mouse on that grey line, it'll turn to a black vertical line with two arrows facing away from each other, hold down the left-mouse button and "drag" your mouse to the desire width.

Hope this helps
