Default Why doesn't my text not "wrap" to next line in table cell?

I've pasted text into a table cell and, instead of a long sentence "wrapping"
to the next line the text just "disappears' off the right margin. Any ideas?

Make sure the right margin doesn't have a negative indent.

Thanks, Suzanne. I checked Page Layout/Paragraph/Indent to make sure there
was no "outdent" but there was nothing. Any other ideas?

Hi, Again -
I did find a negative indent. Thanks so much for pointing me in the right
direction.

That can be very hard to detect in tables because the ruler is not as
helpful as it might be.
