Text in Excel
 
I'm trying to add records in a cell in a point form (similar to how it's done
in MS Word tables). I've done it before but it was a while ago and I can't
remember.

I'm using Excel 2003. Any ideas?

Your description of the problem is indecipherable. For instance a
"record" is applicable to a Database. And it's equivalent in Excel is a
Row, so records in a cell is nonsensical. Also what is "a point form"?
Please try again.

You mean like a "bulleted list" in a cell?

Alt + 0149(on numpad) for a bullet........type some text then Alt + Enter
for a linefeed.

Alt + 0149........type some text then Alt + Enter

Alt + 0149.........type some more text.

To complete the editing hit simply Enter.

Adjust cell width and height to suit.
