Cell Text Overflow Feature Update

Cell Text Overflow Feature Update

Hi. There have been requests for many years asking that ZoHo Sheet allow the labels in one column to flow into adjacent cells. There have been responses saying that it is on the TODO list and will be worked on for three years. As of this writing it is the last half of 2011 and the feature still does not exist.

Please provide a reasonable update and set customer expectations as to whether or not this feature will exist before the end of 2011. Important company decisions are being made about moving to the cloud, and because of this one missing feature, I cannot suggest adopting ZoHo. Labels are an absolute necessity, and it is ludicrous to suggest that performing thousands of cell merges is appropriate. It's equally silly to suggest that cell-wrapping is usable. People want to see their data, not a bunch of wasted white space on the page due to wrapping.

To put it into historical perspective, this feature has been part of the spreadsheet community since the mid-1980s.

Thank you for an otherwise excellent service. I hope that we can learn some new information from ZoHo that will allow me to promote the service as a viable alternative to Office 365.
