In Excel, the content of a cell may look incomplete when it exceeds the length of the cell. Under the circumstance, you can apply wrap text in the cell to ensure that all content can be viewed at once. This article will demonstrate how to programmatically wrap or unwrap text in Excel cells using Spire.XLS for .NET.
Install Spire.XLS for .NET
To begin with, you need to add the DLL files included in the Spire.XLS for .NET package as references in your .NET project. The DLL files can be either downloaded from this link or installed via NuGet.
