Can I do text bullets within an excel cell?
 

I would like to create in one excel cell a paragraph with an opening sentence
followed by bulleted items just like in Word. Is that possible other than
using a workaround the would use one cell for the sentence then indented by
using a separate column and cell?

Can I do text bullets within an excel cell?
 

Try something like this:

Select a cell
Enter some text
Hold down the [alt] key and press [enter]
While holding down the [alt] key type 0149...release the [alt] key
Type the bullet point text
Hold down the [alt] key and press [enter]
repeat

Note: The [alt][enter] combination inserts a "hard carriage return" in the
cell.

Does that help?
