My Excel row is locked at height of 409.5 and I want to increase the size

excel, formatting, height, row

Solution

Create a row below the row you want taller than 409.5

Select cell of top row, and cell of bottom row

Click arrow next to the Merge & Center button in the Alignment section of the Home tab on the ribbon

Click Merge Cells

You can repeat this process multiple times if two cells worth of height isn't enough.

Note that Merge & Centre isn't available for a table, only a standard worksheet.

Problem

The height for one of my rows in excel maxes out at 409.5 and I need to increase the height. Where/how can I fix this.
