Default how best to handle longish text fields in excel?

I have to enter a log that has a long text comment per entry. I would also
like to maintain the new line formatting of the comment. The text is usually
about the length of an average email. Is this a job for excel? Or should I
consider something else?

I want to be able to sort and filter the entries. Cull unnecessary entries
and print what is pertinent... Any suggestions?
