TEXT IN CELL, but not too wide
I wish to type a paragraph into my cell.
Instead of having it appear several inches wide on the spreadsheet, I wish it to wrap, say, into 4 or 5 lines, each line just a few inches wide. How is this done please?? Thanks, FLKulchar |

Type a first line, then Alt-Enter, another line, Alt-Enter, etc.

Thank you...works fine, however I thought there was yet a different method of
accomplishing this via the use of the Format menu...etc...etc??? "FLKULCHAR" wrote: I wish to type a paragraph into my cell.

Format|cells|alignment tab|check wrap text
But you'll have more control over where the lines split by using the alt-enters.
