Default Disabling "wrap text" neuters alt-return line feeds within cell

Hello,

The online help for Microsoft Excel 2003 says to disable wrap-text in
order not to have wrapping of long lines within cells. However, doing
this also turns line feeds into non-line-feed characters (some kind of
strange symbol serving as a place-holder for the linefeed). I only
want to disable wrapping of long lines, I don't want to remove the
effect of hard coded line feeds. How is this done in Excel? (If it
can't be done, that would also be helpful to know). Thanks.
