Is there a way to automatically wrap text in the Task Name field?

When entering a task name that is longer than the column width, is there a
way to set up the project so that the text will wrap to the next line
automatically?

Isc,
Text in the Task Name field will automatically wrap if the row height is
adjusted for multiple rows. Probably the best way to do that if you
don't know which task name rows need to be wrapped, (the latest versions
of Project can adjust row height on individual rows), is to set the Row
Height option under, View/Table/More Tables/Edit, to be whatever value
is appropriate. For example, if you are reasonable sure that two rows of
text is all you need, then set the row height for 2.

Hope this helps.
