Sometimes code boxes appear with a horizontal scrollbar, and sometimes they wrap text. What's the secret to making the scrollbar appear?
 
I seem to always get a scrollbar. I seem to recall Simon saying something previously about a vB setting for window width (albeit in relation to formula display) but that's above my pay grade.
 
Howdy, Rory.

Howdy, Rory,

See, for example, http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-...ulation-get-fairest-solution.html#post3246417 -- I see lines wrapped.

I should point out that I usually keep Explorer on a 1280 x 1204 monitor (which I have to mimic presentations on SXGA projectors). If I move it to my laptop display (WUXGA), there's ample space and no wrapping. But IMO, the preferred behavior would be for a scrollbar to appear as you shrink the window.
