Default populating a cell with text w/ line breaks

I have always used "vbCR" instead of "vbCRLF". Does the
"vbCRLF" add an additional line feed??

In XL2003 this worked

Sub test()
ActiveCell.Value = "Ben" & Chr(10) & "Hur" & Chr(10) &

"Gladiator"
End Sub

I am using XL 2002. I need to populate cells with data

that has been
created using the vbcrlf constant (i.e. data value = "Ben"

& vbcrlf & "Hur"
& vbcrlf & "gladiator").

When I populate the cell with the data value above it

appears double
spaced, like this:

Ben

Hur

gladiator

I want it to apepar like this:

Ben
Hur
gladiator

What is the vb constant used to create the Alt+Enter

line break while
populating a cell?

TIA,
