Is there a way to get text to autowrap in Project, without having to adjust
each task manually?

You can make column headings wrap automatically. But I'm guessing you want
to make task names wrap automatically. You can't do that, although you can
select multiple tasks and adjust their row heights all at once rather than
individually.

chuszo,
Which "text" are you trying to autowrap? Basically Project can only wrap
text if there are spaces in the text string. If you are simply trying to
have the Task Name wrap, depending on which version of Project you are
using, row height can either be set for all task rows only (Project 98
and earlier) or individual task rows (Project 2000 and later). There are
two ways to set the row height of all rows. Either select the whole view
and drag one of the row separator bars or go to View/Table/More Tables
and hit the "edit" button for the selected view. In the lower right
corner of the Table Definition window there is a row height adjustment.
This is Project's version of "word wrap". Set the value to whatever row
height is necessary to allow all wrapped text to show.

Hope this helps.
