Default Linefeed Character

I have never tried this before (I do recall years ago a spreadsheet that had
Title1 and Title2 features)
I was unable to get any text box to work with a concatenation formula such
as =DataSheet!$A$1&DataSheet!$A$2
I put this formula into D1 =A1&CHAR(10)&A2 and used that cell for my chart
title; this gives the effect you want.
I could not find a way to avoid a third cell - I tried to used a defined
name but no luck.
Perhaps Jon Peltier can help us here!

Hello there,

I would like to have my Text box /Chart-title consisting out of 2 cells
that exist on my sheet.
I would have guessed that I can concatenate both cells into that object
but it doesnt.

Eg.
A1= Bob
A2= Andy

Object = A1 (the cell-reference) will show "Bob" in the object
Object = A1&A2 , Excel will not allow you this ...
Of course I can concatenate both cell on my worksheet and and link this
3rd cell...

But actually,what I would like to achieve, is to link both cells to that
object ... where they both appear UNDERNEATH eachother: So that "Andy"
appears under "Bob", concatenating some "linefeed" character -if that
exists- ....

Any ideas?

Jen
