I've worked with Excel fairly extensively, but haven't ever given any
thought to cell padding. You're obviously talking about cells with large
amounts of text in them and I assume you're talking about padding between
the bottom of the cell and the text - is that right? Or do you mean padding
at the top and/or sides as well?
You also seem to be talking more about unintended cell padding and what
might have caused it, as you recognise that the feature isn't actually
provided. So I'm not sure what you're asking - is it whether anyone can
suggest what's causing padding to creep in unasked?
