Default Table issue

I have a table and I want the direction of the text to be vertical in the
first row for each column. It puts the text in the correct direction but
when I type it only accepts the first five characters and then wraps the next
characters. The field is tall enough on the screen to show the entire text
without wrapping. Why is it wrapping? How do I fix this?

Thank you,

Steven

Default Table issue

Some things that could cause the problem:
1. You have applied a left and/or right indentation to the text (Format
Paragraph).
2. The table cells have been applied top and/or bottom margins (Table
Table Properties Table tab (or Cell tab) Options).
3. You do not have automatic hyphenation turned on (Tools Language
Hyphenation) - the text will wrap if there is not room for the next whole
word.
