how do I hit return but stay in the same cell to enter a new line
 

I want to write multiple lines of text in the same cell. I don't want to use
the wrap text function. I know there is some key strokes I use with the
'reutrn' key that lets me do this but can't figure it out! Please help!

Cheers

Instead of pressing the [Enter] key....
Hold downt the [Alt] key and press [Enter]

Does that help?
