The comment will show up in the formula bar but not in the cell.

Is that what you want?

To show more than one line in the results of a formula use CHAR(10)

="This is one line" & CHAR(10) & "this is another line"

Set to wrap text and autofit.

I once saw here that there is a notation with which the alt-enter in-cell
multiple lines (or maybe even without) could be combined with comments. In
other words, there is something that can precede a comment to make the cell
know that it is just that. Anyone know what I'm talking about? It was
something with the letter 'n' and an apostrophe (or parentheses). Not sure.
