(TEXTWIDTH(TheText)) has a maximum value it can return?

Hi.
Is there any restriction for the text width? It seems that the upper value I
can get from (TEXTWIDTH(TheText)) is ~132 cm.
I created a shape with a user customize cell and set in it the formula:
(TEXTWIDTH(TheText)).
The font size is 12 pt and I start typing text. I see that the value of the
(TEXTWIDTH(TheText)) increases till ~132 cm, but then its stays the same, and
visio added a new line for the text.
Can I modify this behavior so I could type more charcters in a line bigger
then 132 cm?

We need this since our users can set very large font size (600 pt.) and then
we need our shapes to be bigger then the ~132 cm that seems to limit us.
Thanks,
Alon.
