Hi David,
wrapping table cells is not supported out-of-the-box. I don't know
of a workaround, but maybe there is someone else who worked around
that...
Cheers,

Possible, yes, probably, but not provided out of the box. There is a
discussion about how tooltips could be implemented in this thread [1].

If you have only *very* few "cells" to display, you lay out labels
in a ScrolledComposite.
With even a moderate amount of rows, you are likely to stress the
client that much that the app becomes unusable.
