Something like this (and easily found on google):

VB

Dim g As Graphics = Me.CreateGraphics()
Dim textSize As Size = g.MeasureString(cInDef, Me.Font).ToSize()

apExcel.ActiveCell.MergeArea.RowHeight = _
        apExcel.ActiveSheet.StandardHeight * _
        (Int(textSize.Width / apExcel.ActiveCell.MergeArea.Width * nScaleFactor) + 1)

g.Dispose()
