Hi ?B?RGVi?=,

We use the properties box to track changes in job descriptions for legal or
other purposes and apparently the cell only allows a limited # of characters.
Can the cell be expanded or are we doing something in error?

"Property box" as in File/Properties? Yes, a single file property is limited to
something like 128 or 255 characters.

You might consider creating a UserForm for the purpose of documenting this
information, and store it as a document Variable. document variables are stored
in the binary file format, but are only visible and editable using VBA. They can
contain more characters than a file property.
