Default add a new line on the same cell using a formula

Hi,

if someone could help me out, that would be great.

here's my prob. I have a database, lets say a list of notes per day fo
5 different people. im using VLOOKUP on a separate sheet so that when
track a specific person's notes and other stuff, the only data ther
would be for that person only.

I have merged cells into one big cell and used CONCATENATE as formul
to collate data. Each note from each day would be collated and this i
the desired result

DAY1: blah blah blah blah blah
DAY 2: the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
DAY 3: the big bad wolf is not so bad after all.

With CONCATENTE, this is the result:

DAY1: blah blah blah blah blah DAY 2: the quick brown fox jumped ove
the lazy dog DAY 3: the big bad wolf is not so bad after all.

Take note that this should be only in one cell. Text wrap wont hel
because this would only adjust the formatting when there are a lot o
notes. I know its workable. Hope someone could help me out. Thanks.
