How to enter in A1 name for row and for column w/diagonal split?
 
I'm trying to label cell A1 in an Excel spreadsheet so that the row name is
identified as well as the column name in this same cell A1, separated by a
diagonal. I can draw the diagonal, but how do you get the row name to appear
in the upper right of the cell and the column name to appear in the lower
left?

there's really no way that I can think of to do it besides maniplating
the cell using wrap text to make it look like it was formatted like you
want

here's an example. look at my formula bar to see how I just used spaces
and word wrap to make the words show up as they have.
oh and a diagonal border through the cell
