I don't have 2007 but will guess ALT + ENTER will give you the line break.

I had tried that, but all it did was create another cel below the
first one. Not inside the first cel like I wanted. I did a clumsy
work-around by using word wrap with lots of spaces to get the words to
wrap, then clicking on distribution. Wasn't exactly what I wanted,
but it will do.
