Excel Alt Return
What do you mean by "This does not work"? What did you try, what result did
you get, and what result did you expect? -- David Biddulph "Jake" wrote in message ... This does not work in either 2003 on my desktop or 2007 in my notebook. Can anyone help? -- Jake |

Excel Alt Return
When I type text into a cell and want to execute a return carriage to create
another line below the line I have typed, (are you following this?) I hit Alt/Enter(Return) to start that fresh line, but it does not happen. What do I expect? I expect a new line below the line of text. I have done this on my work computers which have Office 2003 and no problem. -- Jake "David Biddulph" wrote: What do you mean by "This does not work"?

You've said what doesn't happen, but you haven't said what *does* happen.
Do you get a square symbol where you wanted your new line? Do you have "wrap text" enabled or disabled in Format/ Cells/ Alignment? If you type ABC[Alt-Enter]DEF in cell A2, what result do you get from the formula =CODE(MID(A2,4,1)) ? -- David Biddulph "Jake" wrote in message ...

Excel Alt Return
Nothing happens. There is no flash of light. No figures appear anywhere on
the spreadsheet and nothing disappears. Nothing happens. -- Jake "David Biddulph" wrote: You've said what doesn't happen, but you haven't said what *does* happen.

You haven't answered the questions I asked, so I assume that you don't want
any help. -- David Biddulph "Jake" wrote in message ... Nothing happens. There is no flash of light. No figures appear anywhere on the spreadsheet and nothing disappears.
