Default Format/Row/Autofit

Are any of the cells "merged"?

Row Autofit doesn't work properly with merged cells.

Excel has a problem auto-fitting merged cells.

You can resize manually or via Macro. Jim Rech has written
code for this.

Note also a recent adaptation of this code by Greg Wilson.

If not merged, did you recently manually re-size the row(s)?

This can screw up Autofit. Select all rows and FormatRowsAutofit again.

Is wrap-text enabled?

Wider/skinnier refers to Column.

Taller/shorter refers to Row.

Try FormatColumnAutofit.
