I followed the instructions above. The wrap worked fine as long as I stayed in the same work book. When I opened another workbook the wrap text style was gone from the style box. How can I keep in the style box on every workbook?

Agreed! How can we have this as a saved option for every new spreadsheet?

To ensure Excel Wrap, or any other Style box creation is saved for all future new worksheets:
1. open a new worksheet
2. make the changes to the StyleBox as suggested in the tip for Wrap Text.....one suggestion, change the Style Box wrap text function name to A_WrapText and it will show up as the first function in the style box if you use the wrap text function quite a bit
3. Do a File:SaveAs and at the bottom of the dialog box change the Save As Filetype to Template (*.xlt) and name the file to be saved Book
4. At the top of the dialog box, change the Save In: folder location to C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice10XLStart
5. Now every time you select a new worksheet it will have the wrap text or any other sytle funciton customization that you have put into the sytle box prior to saving Book.xlt to the XLStart folder
