Move your mouse pointer over the vertical line separating coulumns. When you
see the mouse cursor change to a vertical bar, double-click. This will
expand the column width to display the longest item in that column.

By either using the "zoom" hotkey (Shift-F2 ) while you have the
cursor in the field; or - much better IMO - by not using Datasheet
view at all, and instead using a Form (single or continuous) with the
textboxes sized appropriately.
